timeout problem with LWP::UserAgent!!!

[Schiza, Apostolia (ISS Atlanta)]

I saw this problem in the archives but no solution!
In my script I am trying to set the timeout value to 5 mins (300 secs)
by doing
$ua->timeout(300);
but this does not take any effect.
I tried printing the value that the above
statement returns I get 180 seconds instead of
300.
I have LWP version 5.48 (I re-installed activestate perl
few weeks ago)

can somebody help? Is this a bug? If it is 
what other alternatives to I have? Maybe
use IO::Socket??

Thank you
