Sorry, didn't see the 's' there. No, I don't think LWP::Simple supports SSL, but it'll work with LWP (the more complex version of LWP::Simple). Support in LWP is transparent, it seems. It's not too much harder to use either.

I tried this bit of code pretty much right from the cpan LWP page and got the following errors in my error log.

#!usr/bin/perl -w

# Create a user agent object
  use LWP::UserAgent;
  $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
  $ua->agent("MyApp/0.1 ");

  # Create a request
  my $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => 'http://www.e-gold.com/unsecure/
+metaldata.asp?LATEST=1&GOLD=1');
  $req->content_type('application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
#  $req->content('LATEST=1&GOLD=1');

  # Pass request to the user agent and get a response back
  my $res = $ua->request($req);

  # Check the outcome of the response
  if ($res->is_success) {
      print $res->content;
  } else {
      print "Bad luck this time\n";
  }

Ok. I've never tried using modules before, but I'll give it a whirl... try something easy with it first.
