A: Any update on this issue?

If you need to get this done, take a look at the Twitter API documentation; it describes how to authenticate using their REST API there. I'm pretty tied up with other work at the moment so won't be able to look at this for a bit. If anyone finds a solution, please post it here for others to see. Cheers - Steve.

Unfortunately, I think you’re right. Will have to look for another way of doing it then!

This means that you're not authenticating, see: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html check your username and password are correct.
