As suggested by some I have gotten rid of the Dialog() call,

There is one more place where it should be removed from i think (depends on what you want). Try that.


and have replaced the DoEvents() call with Update();

Not sure about this one. You need the DoEvents() call if you want people to be able to abort. The ProgressBar is presumably updated with the SetPos() call.


this is the only thing that happens, then my program exits mysteriously
without entering the while(1) loop which is the download progress of the file.
I am left with a file-to-be of "0" bytes.

Put print statements in your code to tell you exactly how far it goes and where, what values variables have etc. Data::Dumper is very nice if you have data structures to display.

Also, coding Perl without "use strict;" and warnings are unnecessarily difficult and error prone. Just a tip.


Hope That Helps,
