apache server errors with remote files

Hi
when trying to add an external link for file download , I have several errors in apache,about filesize in files' url e.g. http://www.something.com/file.mp3
mod_fcgid: stderr: PHP Warning: filesize() [<a href='function.filesize'>function.filesize</a>]: stat failed for home/.../public_html/http://www.something.com/file.mp3 in home/.../public_html/administrator/components/com_phocadownload/helpers/phocadownload.php on line 205, referer: .../administrator/index.php?option=com_phocadownload&controller=phocadownload&task=edit&cid[]=12
note that downloading the file works ok. I understand that it may be not reading the size of the remote file but what about these errors? Is it a php matter or a phocadowload one? Also, a similar error appears about size when I write text in filename instead of selecting file,when using the external link feature.Seems that looking for a file (and not for text) in this case generates errors. All that in PD 1.3.9 , joomla 1.5.24.
*where ... in quote, this is the root dir in server and url of my site.

Hi, I don't know mod_fcgid under apache. Try to check settings of this module, if there is no some limiation, etc. :idea:
