LYNX-DEV Netscape allergic to Lynx? |

Browsing at Red Hat Software site (with Netscape), I happened to
follow the links leading me to Lynx. I was curious to learn about the
project since I am strongly in favor of open software. When I clicked
on the Lynx links (intending to get a copy of Lynx) my Netscape window
mysteriously vanished! I repeated the experience a second time with
the same result. Would Netscape be allergic to Lynx and try to prevent
people from getting another browser? Are you aware of such a policy or
have he been simply "unlucky". And if it is really so that Netscape
prevents you from connecting to some sites, is it legal?
Thanks.

Linux (and Lynx, but an "old" version, at home)
