Newer versions of Lynx (I know 2.8pre and higher) supports SSL as well as 
basic authentication.

If you run 'lynx -version', you should get something like below. Look for 
'OpenSSL' to ensure that your version of Lynx supports SSL:
Lynx Version 2.8.4rel.1 (17 Jul 2001)
libwww-FM 2.14, SSL-MM 1.4.1, OpenSSL 0.9.6b
Built on cygwin Aug  8 2001 09:50:20

See http://lynx.browser.org/ and the online help for more information.

See http://www.moxienet.com/lynx/ for information about SSL for Lynx.
See http://www.openssl.org/ for information about OpenSSL.
