Dear WWWOFFLE professionals, with WWWOFFLE 2.6a, recently, with my
ISP, I get lots of

        The remote host failed to send the reply within the timeout period

from WWWOFFLE.  Turning off WWWOFFLE, one sees that maybe if WWWOFFLE
tried longer or something, it might have got thru:

$ wget -Y off http://www.useit.com/alertbox/

P.S. I cannot do
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ecn
on my 
linux 2.2.17-21mdk Oct 5 13:16:08 CEST 2000 i586

I don't know what needs adjusting.  All I know is that about 1/2 of
the web times out on the initial click :-(

P.S. I didn't really type "WWWOFFLE" over and over as above.  I use
dabbrev-expand of emacs.
