From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; rv:1.0.0+) Gecko/20020501

This only happens on Windows95 as far as I know. When you go to
http://courses.dsu.edu/cis350, it asks for a username and password, it isn't
supposed to do this, it's supposed to display a webpage.

1. go to http://courses.dsu.edu/cis350
2.
3.

Actual Results:  it asks for a username and password

Expected Results:  it should display a web page

has been doing this for a while on Wind95 builds. the server that the page is
stored on is running IIS.
