Opening SSL URLs with Python

I'm using mechanize to navigate pages, it works pretty well.

Unfort开发者_StackOverflow社区unately I have a random error come up, by random I mean it occasionally appears.

URLError at /test/

urlopen error [Errno 1] _ssl.c:1325: error:140943FC:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert bad record mac>

I really need help on this one :)

any ideas?

I had a similar error and found that PycURL works way better than urllib.
