Off Topic! I e 5.5 header info needed

Off Topic! I e 5.5 header info needed

[Kenny Hitt]

Hi.  I use Comcast for inter net service.  I haven't ever been able to
log in to there web sight with lynx.  Finally today: I was told Comcast
requires all users to use Inter net explorer.  Lucky for me I have
another choice for cable inter net so I will just probably switch.
Before I do, I'd like to see if I can get lynx to fool the Comcast sight
into thinking I am using iexplorer.
Would someone send me the User-Agent header sent by I e 5.5?

Thanks in advance.
          Kenny

Hi Kenny,
I am running comcast from home.  I do not have any problems using most 
of their services with lynx.  It is much more lynx friendly than the old 
@home site used to be which wasn't accessible at all.

Hi Kenny,
I'll try it at home and let you know if I experience the same thing.  I 
don't remember my password.  Now, have I ever tried "member services" 
using lynx?  I'm not sure.

Hi.  How do you log in to there web sight?  The sight seems easy to
use with lynx, but I can't do anything with my account.  When I give
it my user ID and password: it just leaves me on a blank page.  I have 
the latest version of lynx with ssl support.

Thanks.  Someone from Comcast replied to my mail and I sent them
details of what happens and my version of lynx.  hopefully the person I
talked to on the phone was wrong and lynx can work with there sight.
If you want, I'll keep you posted on what happens.
