In Firefox they will try to load for a while, then eventually time out/"the connection was reset"

Using the telnet command, and any of the sites (names) I can't get to -there's just a blank screen and typing 'GET /' doesn't do anything... Unless I'm not waiting long enough.

I did something like this a few days ago... can't remember how to view the .txt file.

I did see something like that from the page leading from an invalid url. It was a 'Preferences' page. It had 3 different things to set.

CenturyLink Web Helper

Typo Correction Service

Adult Filter


& I've got all 3 disabled.

For myself, for later.
