lol. I've expressed myself poorly, I meant I read about some issues when getting the Request + urlopen working when there's a proxy involved (like in my case) even when activating a no_proxy configuration, something like, proxy_support = urllib.ProxyHandler({}) opener = urllib.build_opener(proxy_support) urllib.install_opener(opener) But I don't know how to use it :( -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
