I am trying to read a file in with file_get_contents () - it's a remote HTTP file, and I've checked the URL and it's fine. Only it doesn't work.

More to the point the the error message is the standard Firefox server error:

The connection was reset

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

... rather than any form of PHP error. It also only took a couple of seconds to come back so it can't be hitting the script runtime limit - any ideas on what is going wrong here?

It's PHP 5 on Apache 2, running on Windows btw.
