I'm getting an error when ever I try to pull down a web page with urllib.urlopen. I've disabled windows firewall and my AV so its not that. I can access the pages in my
browser. I even reinstalled python to rule out it being a broken urllib. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
>>> import urllib
>>> h = urllib.urlopen("http://www.google.com").read()
Traceback (most recent call last):
