in thread WWW::Mechanize - error on geting non-existing page

Anonymous Monk,
I doubt this ever happens :)

Until today, I would have agreed with you. See Re^2: What Tools Do You Use With WWW::Mechanize. Essentially, $mech->mirror() will not decompress the file but that doesn't mean that Mech can't handle compression (I provide an alternative way of downloading the file that works just fine in the node).

Cheers - L~R
