If you got a 200 code back, the returned data should only be broken if:
1. The server sends you bad data
2. libcurl bugs
3. Your write callback function bugs
4. Something other I didn't think of right now.

I'd say that the option 3 is the most likely here. Option 1 is probably easy
checked with a normal browser. I don't think option 2 is very likely either
on this kind of simple transfer that are very often performed by users all
over.

If there was a authentication problem, you wouldn't get a 200.

Now, if you still have this problem. You should include libcurl version and
an as detailed protocol dump as you can showing the transfer fail. Also, you
could include your code that receives the data.
