Ethereal is a mighty powerful network analyzer with a GUI. It runs on just
about every OS, including Windows. It is open source.

Right, but we need to start investigate where the differences are. One way to
do that is to properly check what the server sends over the wire and compare
that to what libcurl claims the server sent.

Another way is to make sure that libcurl's request is as similar as possible
as the browser's request, and see if that makes a difference. Far too often it
does.
