I'm not sure that this is a duplicate: specifically, I'm successfully loading
this page in a current MOZILLA_0_9_4_BRANCH build (Mozilla, not commercial!) on
Linux. Jud, try adding this to your prefs.js:

  user_pref("general.useragent.override",
    "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.4) Gecko/20010910");

If that works, we probably ought to kick this over to the evangelists. For
kicks, could you put your UA into the bug so I can try it? Hit this link:

  http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~dbaron/www/httpreq

and note the User-Agent field (last under ``Request Header Fields'').
if this is only a problem with windows, it could be due to the fact that the
Accept-Charset: request header is blank.  see bug 97606.
waterson - using the override doesn't change the behavior for me.

my UA is Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.4)
Gecko/20010917 Netscape6/6.2


I suspect Darin is right - see my comment in bug 98262.
