    hi all

    it's been years since i've worked with perl, so i'd rather use prefad code.
    i've got a client who is concerned that a perl http client could login to
    his server and query a set of forms, downloading all the data. i'm writing
    some asp code to limit the number of queries that can be run within a set
    time frame, and think this should work fine, but would like to be able to
    test my code. does anybody know where i can find a perl script that can
    connect to a web site, login with username/password, and make requests of a
    form?

    tks
