copyright has nothing to do with my download error

[Janina Sajka]

The two REFERER statements are definitely in lynx.cfg, and they are definitely set "TRUE" by default.

Not sure where each distro puts lynx.cfg, but a locate lynx.cfg' should find each and every one. Under Red Hat I see
them in /usr/local/lib. I've also seen it in /etc. And, of course, you can have a lynx.cfg in your $HOME directory,
which would take precedence.

Load the file into your favorite text editor and search for:

no_refer

This should take you right to it. You will need to arrow down past all the comments that explain what this setting does
to the actual setting statement. That actual statement is:
NO_REFERER_HEADER:TRUE

Notice this is all in capital letters. Change the TRUE to FALSE.

The next one, NO_FILE_REFERER is the very next section down.
