MySpace.com Login?

Has anyone been able to login into myspace.com with
curl? I thought that it would be trivial, but
unfortunately not. After tracing the http requests
through a proxy it appears as though the login is
occurring correctly, but then the "home" page does a
redirect back to the login page, in essence logging
back out. Not entirely sure what's going on. I've
compared the curl http requests to elinks and they
appear identical, except for the fact that elinks
works.

Thanks for any ideas or suggestions!

My CL:

curl -A 'ELinks/0.9.2 (textmode; Linux; 80x24)'
--trace-ascii /tmp/trace -L -b cookies.txt -c
cookies.txt -d
'email=xxxx%40gmail.com&password=xxxxx&Submit22.x=0&Submit22.y=0'
