get() being blocked?

Just moved to a new host. I've made no changes to my existing perl scripts. The LWP:get() being blocked?imple module is installed at the new host.

Even the simplest version of a script using the get() command fails:

Code: 
#!/usr/bin/perl

# simplest version

use LWP::Simple;

$URL="http://www.google.com";

$content = get($URL);

defined $content or die"something screwy with getting results.";

print $content;
The script dies with the error message. It's as if somehow the outbound query is being blocked.

I've filed a trouble ticket, but thus far no clue.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
