Hey all,
The following fails for me:
from urllib2 import urlopen
f = urlopen("http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-announce/feed/rss_v2_0_msgs.xml
")
Traceback (most recent call last):

urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden
However, that _same_ url works perfectly fine on the
same machine (and same network) using any of:
* curl
* wget
* elinks
* firefox
Any helpful ideas ?
The remote server doesn't like your user agent?
It'd be easier to help if you post a working sample.
Cheers
Philip
