get() function - troubles with pdf and zip files.

[Marco]

Hi,

I try to download some pdf or zip from interet with a perl scripts.

I use the following function.

I open file on my computer called FIC then

$file = get("http://dddddd.zip");
print FIC $file;

The file is downloded but it cannot be read, while when I do the same
process with txt or html it works pefectly.

Do you have any idea of how can I solve this problem?

Thanks,

Marco
