I'm pretty sure that this is due to a change over at Merriam Websters. Their cgi-bin link just doesn't work anymore.
I've already dirtied my own sandbox's mwd.xml. But I don't think the regular "mwd" search worked anymore either. Somebody with a clean sandbox could try it out by typing, mwd <word> in the DQSD. The popups haven't been a problem. I've had this working for years. Environments: launchmode=1; (On two computers. Default browser is Mozilla Firefox 3.0.1. on each.)
