The version is 7.15.0.0. I'll try the trace, though this is in our
production environment and it'll be a month or so until we deploy a new
version.

Thanks,

Thomas

You could use --trace or -v or similar to debug curl's activities, and if 52

is returned you can store the log for later inspection and it should reveal
curl's view of what happened. curl and IE are two entirely different beasts
so
it doesn't surprise me that they may act differently...

What curl version is this?
