Bizarre, now I'm really puzzled.

Firefox on my home linux box gives:

The connection was reset
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
     *   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again 
in a few
           moments.
     *   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
           connection.
     *   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, 
make sure
           that Iceweasel is permitted to access the Web.




...but firefox under windows under vmware on the same machine brings it up 
fine.

links on the same box fails to bring it up.

All the same on my office computer, connecting through UNC's connection.
