Whereas in the distant past lycos.com used to be usable as a search
engine, in the past n months, it now attempts to download a file called
vnd.wap.wml instead of presenting a web page. 

Unless lynx has a flag for accepting wml and processing it locally, it
appears to me we need either an alternative url to lycos or to drop lycos
from the lynx help page.  It is my opinion that no lynx hostile web page
should be listed on the lynx help page...
