cfhttp

Hi,

I need to emulate a real http request via cfhttp. I was getting rss feed with ColdFusion, but tonight they started to block my request and send an index page in response instead of rss fead.

I added useragent for cfhttp, but it doesn't help.

Opera, Firefox and Chrome open feed correctly from the same computer.
