Subject: 401 error
Since the beginning of this week all calls to Net::Twitter::Lite::update have returned 401 errors. My scripts haven't changed. I scan still login to twitter.com and do things manually. Perhaps twitter.com have changed something and this module needs to be updated to reflect that?

Apparently, you missed this: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-api-announce/t/c03fa2b1ae90d2a9 Twitter no longer supports Basic Auth (username/password authentication). You need to use OAuth, which is fully supported by Net::Twitter::Lite. -Marc
