Subject: images flaky on cygwin
The proxy works fine in windows running cygwin (I am using perl 5.8.1 on cygwin 1.5.5 on windows XP Pro), however the images are not cominng through the proxy all that well. I am browsing with mozilla 1.5rc1. I can send screenshots if you want, but some of the images are garbled and some simply don't show up (mozilla says that they have errors).
This is probably due to failure to binmode the handles in question.

The problem being that no handles are opened. The proxy gets the data from LWP::UserAgent in a callback. And sends it forward to the client in a socket handled by HTTP::Daemon. I do not see where I could use binmode().

This problem was experienced while using HTTP::Recorder, which, i found, was mangling images coming through the proxy. i submitted a patch to the author and would consider this an http::recorder issue.

It was definitely an HTTP::Recorder issue, which was fixed in release 0.02. Please feel free to resolve it, or forward it to the HTTP-Recorder queue, and I'll resolve it there. Thanks, Linda
