title: WWW::Mechanize timeout - all urls timing out
body: <p>I am having a problem using WWW::Mechanize.  It seems no matter what website I try accessing, my script just sits there in the command prompt until it times out.  The only things that come to mind that might be relevant are the following:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>I have IE7, chrome, and FF installed.  FF was my default browser but I recently switched that to chrome.</li>
  <li>I seem to be able to access websites with port 8080 just fine.</li>
  <li>I recently experimented with the cookie jar but stopped using it because, honestly, I'm not sure how it works.  This may have instantiated a change.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Here is an example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/perl -w
  use strict;
  use WWW::Mechanize;
  
  my $url = 'http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/perl/learn/';
  
  my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
  
  $mech->get( $url );
  
  print $mech->content;</code></pre>
