They may be trying to do some kind of javascript thing, or something
along those lines.  I take it setting up an account probably isn't a
free thing I could do in testing? :)  Maybe I can mail their webmaster
and try, even with the focus on IE and Netscape.

Already mentioned your password, you may want to also hide your
username, that's up to you.  I'm not sure if they have any other info
about you stored (or if for example page URLs redirect based on
name/password).  Since no one else has said anything on this thread,
go ahead and mail it to me privately.  We can repost to the list if I
can't figure out what's up.

If you can compress the tracefile (bzip2 or gzip preferred, but I
should be able to handle .zip, I don't know what platform you're on)
then a uuencoded or MIME attachment should be just fine.
