hi,

is anyone here able to access www.consortiuminfo.org/standardsblog/ through
wwwoffle?  i keep getting this message below, and i just don't get why they
would block a proxy, and also how they detect something anyways. 

what does wwwoffle do to the request? is it possible to make wwwoffle send out
the request exactly as it received it from the browser?

Precondition Failed

We're sorry, but we could not fulfill your request for 
/standardsblog/article.php?story=20080708052706429 on this server.

We have established rules for access to this server, and any person or robot 
that violates these rules will be unable to access this site.

To resolve this problem, please try the following steps:

    * Ensure that your computer is free of viruses, Trojan horses, spyware or 
any other sort of malicious software.
    * If you are using any sort of personal firewall or browser privacy 
software, check to ensure that its settings do not cause your web browser to 
inadvertently violate any of the rules listed below.
    * If you are behind a Web proxy or corporate firewall, the proxy must 
conform to the HTTP specification with respect to proxy servers. Contact your 
network administrator if the trouble persists, or bypass the proxy and connect 
directly if possible.
    * Disable any download accelerators you may be using. They don't speed up 
your downloads anyway; in most cases, they actually run slower!
    * If all else fails, try using a different Web browser, such as Firefox.

If you still need assistance, please contact updegrove at consortiuminfo.org.
