Well it worked flawlessly for me using both Core 2.5 and View/Pro
1.1. It didn't fail on either through pass 52 (4150 chars) where I
stopped it. Are you, by chance, going through any proxies? Anything
in between you and the web server has the opportunity to truncate the
URL.
You are right that read should not fail but it isn't. Notice the
error you get back is not a URL Error or any other REBOL script
error. It is a 400 response from the webserver telling you "Bad
Request."
