I'm just quoting the PHP.net site again.
Sorry if you've tried these things already.
Is it a binary file?

With large files you might need to break it up:


|<?php
$handle = fopen("http://www.example.com/", "rb");
$contents = '';
while (!feof($handle)) {
  $contents .= fread($handle, 8192);
}
fclose($handle);
?> |

    *Note: * If you just want to get the contents of a file into a
    string, use *file_get_contents()*
    <http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.file-get-contents.php> as it
    has much better performance than the code above.
