I have a strange bug when trying to urlopen a certain page from Wikipedia. This is the page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenCola_(drink) This is the shell session: >>> f = urllib2.urlopen('http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenCola_(drink)') Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Program Files\Wing IDE 4.0\src\debug\tserver\_sandbox.py", line 1, in <module> # Used internally for debug sandbox under external interpreter File "c:\Python26\Lib\urllib2.py", line 126, in urlopen return _opener.open(url, data, timeout) File "c:\Python26\Lib\urllib2.py", line 397, in open response = meth(req, response) File "c:\Python26\Lib\urllib2.py", line 510, in http_response 'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs) File "c:\Python26\Lib\urllib2.py", line 435, in error return self._call_chain(*args) File "c:\Python26\Lib\urllib2.py", line 369, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "c:\Python26\Lib\urllib2.py", line 518, in http_error_default raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp) urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden This happened to me on two different systems in different continents. Does anyone have an idea why this happens?
