Thank you for your response and I will post in curl-library from now
on. Since you showed interest by asking questions I'll finish this
thread here unless you or someone else tells me not to.

By 'fails' I mean that the page returned by the Web Server is not the
page I expected. I am trying to navigate to www.msn.com using a web
proxy and the page returned should contain content from msn.com.
Instead, the page returned by the proxy is one which invites me to
enter the url again. I had a similar problem which exhibited the exact
same symptoms and in that case I wasn't URL encoding the POST variables
correctly. I suspect that I am doing something similarly wrong in this
case.

libcurl 7.18.2
Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty 64-bit
2.6.28-15-generic

Thanks again
Curt
