    i don't think this problem has anything to do with CueCat. i think it has to do with Amazon. i'm trying to download album art for a [relatively] recent CD, and no matter which Amazon server i choose, i'm getting the same "Bad HTTP status code" message.

    Here's my session log for that error:

    >|

    i have a hacked CueCat as well, though i never use it to enter CDs; i prefer to scan the CD in my CD drive. But the CueCat works fine for entering barcodes and searching the database by barcode.

    Thanks for the reply.

    That is the same response I am getting as well and like you I think that perhaps there is trouble at the amazon end. I have since treid the different amazon sites like the canadian site and although I am still getting errors the code is 200.

    Is there away to search on other sites other than amazon and will the barcode way of searching work on these sites???

    More impartantly has anyone had success with amazon of late???I would early like to get the scanner function working to save on a lot of data entry....

    Some help please...

    Andrew
