This problem still exist in Python 3.3.2. The following code gives you an example:

import urllib.request
url = "http://www.libon.it/libon/search/isbn/3499155443"
req = urllib.request.Request(url)
response = urllib.request.urlopen(req, timeout=30)
the_page = response.read().decode('utf-8')
print(the_page)


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\X\webpy.py", line 4, in <module>
    response = urllib.request.urlopen(req, timeout=30)
  File "C:\Python33\lib\urllib\request.py", line 156, in urlopen
    return opener.open(url, data, timeout)
  File "C:\Python33\lib\urllib\request.py", line 475, in open
    response = meth(req, response)
  File "C:\Python33\lib\urllib\request.py", line 587, in http_response
    'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs)
  File "C:\Python33\lib\urllib\request.py", line 507, in error
    result = self._call_chain(*args)
  File "C:\Python33\lib\urllib\request.py", line 447, in _call_chain
    result = func(*args)
  File "C:\Python33\lib\urllib\request.py", line 692, in http_error_302
    return self.parent.open(new, timeout=req.timeout)
  File "C:\Python33\lib\urllib\request.py", line 469, in open
    response = self._open(req, data)
  File "C:\Python33\lib\urllib\request.py", line 487, in _open
    '_open', req)

    return self.do_open(http.client.HTTPConnection, req)
  File "C:\Python33\lib\urllib\request.py", line 1248, in do_open
    h.request(req.get_method(), req.selector, req.data, headers)
