Stephane, what you are looking for is the LWP module.. it comes standard
with any ActiveState perl release but is not standard with Linux (or at
least RedHat)
try search.cpan.org if you need to obtain and look for "LWP"
you'll find the documentation very informational.

use LWP::Simple;
my $url = 'http://some.domain.com';
my $page = get($url);
There are plenty more ways to get urls via LWP and the HTTP modules.
