Check with http://web-sniffer.net/ the headers of the links. All the links are moved. (301). The new pages are unavailable for me at the moment (503).
Version: unspecified → Trunk
This is partially confirmed for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050327 Firefox/1.0+ The page loads, but only displays the source code. MSIE it works just fine. This could be because the page is "x.dll" not a standard internet file. Changing Component to "File Handling" Adding my CC to keep up to date with this report.

Confirmed Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050909 Firefox/1.4 ID:2005090906 Firefox asks me to download the file at URL, whereas IE displays the web page. I strongly suspect that this is a header/server configuration problem.

Marking as CONFIRMED. Should this be moved to Core/Networking:File?
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
errr...by Networking:File, I meant Networking:HTTP.

Example of PHP script error. - When PHP, HTTP header requests have to be issued before any HTML request. And, if HTTP header request is issued after a HTML request, the data passed to PHP by the HTTP header request is treated as HTML text. This site's case can be a result of confusion on HTTP header of "Content-Type:" and HTML text of "<meta http-equiv="Content-Type"...>. => Eevang bug.
