	From Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory [MDKSA-2003:023]
	HTTP queries that lynx constructs are  from  arguments  on  the  command
	line or the $WWW_HOME environment variable, but lynx does  not  properly
	sanitize special characters  such  as  carriage  returns  or  linefeeds.

	can cause scripts that use lynx to fetch data from the wrong  site  from
	servers that use virtual hosting.
