Was this compiled with Java 1.5? When I try to compile it into my
nutch installation, I get "class file has wrong version 49.0, should
be 48.0". Apparently, you need to use "-source 1.4" to create a
compatible class file for 1.4.

Oops, you are right... *blush* I forgot that I compiled the libs myself.

The code doesn't actually use the commons-httpclient-contrib, so if you 
just take a vanilla commons-httpclient.jar from the official 
distribution (3.0-rc2) all should be fine.
