  I'm trying to load a page from a Craft based website using file\_get\_contents or cURL. Using `get_file_contents` I get an empty result, using cURL I can see that the request is getting redirected to the login page.
  
  If I switch to a different domain that is also running Craft the `file_get_contents` and cURL both work fine.
  
  Any idea what could possibly be causing the redirect to be happening?
