It looks to me like they are doing file compression on the site. (E.g., there seems to be an index.html.gz file there.) This practice is described in "High Performance Web Sites" and other fine publications. I would be curious to know if this is a problem with Lynx or with their site setup.

Has anyone else noticed strange things with support.microsoft.com? If I wget it ('http://support.microsoft.com/') from anywhere, I get an index.html fine. If I use lynx, I get gibberish (gzipped content, without a correct header) If I use Firefox or IE behind some Squid proxies in certain places, it doesn't understand the content either. Looks like either they are not correctly encoding the content based on browser capabilities. _______________________________________________ NANOG mailing list NANOG () nanog org http://mailman.nanog.org/mailman/listinfo/nanog
