I don't know much about Perl, but in C the curl_easy_setopt function has a
couple of cookie options you might want to look up:

   CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE pass the pathname of a cookie file to load

   CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR pass the pathname of a file to save cookies when
curl_easy_cleanup() is called.

Either one will cause the cookie parser to start, so when you pick up that
initial url any cookies that come with it are processed.
