Move from LWP to CURL

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Perl's LWP module has a documented list of problems when working with proxies - 
doesn't support NTLM auth, incorrectly uses GET https://www.snort.org/... 
instead of CONNECT www.snort.org:443, etc.

I propose that curl be used instead. I have hacked the latest pulledpork to 
work with WWW::Curl::Simple.

Can't locate object method "new" via package "WWW::Curl::Simple" (perhaps you 
forgot to load "WWW::Curl::Simple"?) at ./pulledpork.pl line 44.

??? :(

Geblrech... - do you have WWW::Curl::Simple installed on your system 
(http://search.cpan.org/~andremar/WWW-Curl-Simple-0.100191/lib/WWW/Curl/Simple.p
m)? It often does not ship by default with Linux distributions - you need to 
either download from repositories or perl -MCPAN -e 'install WWW::Curl::Simple'.

Hi Konrad,

I am running Ubuntu Server 12.04. And yes, it is installed. 

Output perl -> "WWW::Curl::Simple is up to date (0.98)."
