I think we're getting proxied by Comcast. I have lynx
in two places, neither of which has been recently upgraded.
Still working, and NOT on a Comcast network:
Lynx Version 2.8.3rel.1 (23 Apr 2000)
Built on osf5.0 Sep 18 2000 14:56:05
Recently failing, on a Comcast cable modem:
Lynx Version 2.8.4rel.1 (17 Jul 2001)
libwww-FM 2.14, SSL-MM 1.4.1, GNUTLS 0.8.6
Built on linux-gnu May 3 2003 01:32:20
So I now wonder:
1. how do I verify my suspicion
2. how do I get past this
