Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.11) Gecko/20100701 SeaMonkey/2.0.6 Extensions (enabled: 6) * Adblock Plus 1.2.1 * DOM Inspector 2.0.4 (http://www.mozilla.org/projects/inspector/) * Flashblock 1.3.16 (http://flashblock.mozdev.org/) * Live HTTP headers 0.16 * PrefBar 5.1.1 (http://prefbar.mozdev.org/) * Show Password On Input 0.1.3 (https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/addon/6143/) * ShowIP 0.8.19 (http://code.google.com/p/firefox-showip/) I have no problem viewing the page without any spoofing. The page validates with 156 errors if I force the W3C validator to use iso-8859-1 character encoding. However, the <head> section explicitly states UTF-8 encoding. There are also 78 CSS errors. The problem is that, at line 223, the bytes x(c8) appear. This is an upper-case E with a grave accent and is not allowed as such in XHTML with UTF-8 encoding. Overall, this page is garbage. I'm surprised that I was able to view it. -- David E.
