Hello,
"Spambot detected.
Hi, your web browser has triggered our spambot detection
mechanism. A spambot is a computer program designed to
scoop up e-mail addresses and bombard them with unsolicited
advertisements.
If we made a mistake, and you really are a human being,
we apologize profusely. It just happens that your browser
looks VERY similar to a known spambot. Please try using a
different browser and you should have no problem connecting
to the site.
Have a good day (and die, spambots, die)"
this is what I get when I browse with IBrowse (well known
Webbrowser for AmigaOS/ MorphOS) on gcc.gnu.org.
Is Internet Explorer required to visit this site now? Sadly
I don't have a Windows compatible Personal Computer to find
out.
It would be nice if you/ someone could fix that. Thanks.
Browser ID is: "IBrowse/2.3 (MorphOS 1.4)" or "IBrowse/2.3
(AmigaOS 3.1)"
(versions number of browser or OS can be different)
regards,
