I have checked this setting in my php.ini

allow_url_fopen = On

It is ON be default.

According to the PHP documentation:

it stated that as of php5, filesize supports the reading of remote html
files:

http://php.net/manual/en/function.filesize.php

But I have tried the following:
echo filesize("http://www.yahoo.com/");

It returned me this error:

Warning: filesize() [function.filesize]: stat failed for..blah blah

Anyone have this same problem?

Yes. Im using PHP5 and php.ini's allow_url_fopen = On (Thanks to J.O. Aho)
