User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:19.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/19.0 SeaMonkey/2.16 Slackware Linux (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20140510162920 Steps to reproduce: I went to https://www.fcc.gov/comments to make a comment on the Net Neutrality proposal. When I clicked on the 14-28 in the 'Proceeding #' column, I'm taken to a page that gives me "Not Found The requested object does not exist on this server. The link you followed is either outdated, inaccurate, or the server has been instructed not to let you have it." I did the same exact steps in Opera and Konqueror and Firefox and didn't have any problems and was taken to where it was supposed to take me - to a page I can enter my name etc and write my comment. I'm using Seamonkey 2.26, Firefox ESR 24.5.0, Opera 12.16 and the stock Konqueror on Slackware 14.1 Linux. Actual results: When clicking on any of the numbers in the 'Proceeding #' column, you are taken to a page that shows: Not Found The requested object does not exist on this server. The link you followed is either outdated, inaccurate, or the server has been instructed not to let you have it. Expected results: I should have been taken to a page that allows me to enter my info and allows me to type in my comment etc.

All look to be working for me. Perhaps a glitch on their end. Still not working for you?
No, still not working for me, still doing the same thing. The link just doesn't seem to work with Seamonkey.
Standard troubleshooting steps: Clear Cookies, Clear Cache.
I guess I should have mentioned that that was 'standardly' done, though nowadays on a common linux system it's not supposed to be a necessity and is usually a 'fix' for M$ machines. Either way, it was done, just because, and made no difference.
(In reply to therube from comment #5) > Does this link work ? > > http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/begin?procName=14-28&filedFrom=X No, that link gives me the same message as in my original post... Not Found The requested object does not exist on this server. The link you followed is either outdated, inaccurate, or the server has been instructed not to let you have it.
Okay, I've figured it out. It's 'https everywhere' that I have on my Seamonkey. I have nothing like it installed on any of the other browsers I tried. Seems the government has certain useless alphabet soup agencies trying to spy on its citizens *and* others around the world by breaking encryptions etc to get to e-mails etc, but certain other branches have no clue about privacy, encrytion or a care about their citizens. The epitome of 'The left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing'. My apologies to everyone, because I simply forgot I had https everywhere installed. Thanks to those who took the time though to try and help. It's greatly appreciated.
