Attempting to access http://www.msn.co.jp gives a "Download IE" page.

Using UA Bar to spoff useragent and selecting IE6/WinXP works.

Summary: Mozilla 1.0 Denied access to MSN Japan → msn.co.jp - Mozilla Denied access server-side
Changing component and QA.
Component: Asian → Japanese
QA Contact: ruixu → gashu
Now MSN Japan (http://www.msn.co.jp/) is accessible with Mozilla.
Confirmed with 1.4rc2 on Windows.
MSN still let users click on msn.co.jp/home/aspx, should we mark this fixed or
wfm or leave it open for the remaining initial warning ?
Mass re-assign to japanese default owner.
Assignee: momoi → japanese
If we disable cookie, we are redirected to the warning page.
But if we enable cookie, and once we check a checkbox in the bottom of
the page, then we can go directly to the top page.
I recommend WFM.
Marking WFM, I guess MSN will always try to recommend IE or MSN anyway, we can't
probably tell them to do otherwise.
