Hi,
I guessed so, but I have the most recent zlib version, and the decoding
worked fine when I tried it with a Firefox browser. Also I can make it work
by changing the order in the "Accept-Encoding:" header to "gzip,deflate"
instead of the default 'deflate,gzip' or setting CURLOPT_ENCODING to 'gzip'.
I was just wondering if it could be something else I'm missing here.

Anyway thanks for the response. I'll continue digging and will let you know
if something comes up.
