Phoenix and Galeon hate me too

Okay, this is getting silly. Who's playing a prank on me? Come forward. I won't be mad. I promise.

I decided it MUST be something with the way Mozilla is being packaged for Debian. So, I installed Phoenix (apt-get install phoenix, thank you very much. Here are the specs:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20030117 Phoenix/0.5

Now Phoenix is a bit nicer. It still doesn't display Jess' site. But instead of crashing entirely, Phoenix just hangs. Okay… maybe that's not nicer.

I decided that I didn't care and installed Galeon instead (apt-get install galeon-snapshot. Man I love Debian). Galeon doesn't provide the same information that Mozilla and Phoenix do regarding rendering engine versions and whatnot. So, all I can tell you in this case is that I am running version 1.3.3 (WOW! Galeon has changed a lot since I last used it).

It, just like Phoenix, starts to load the page, and then just hangs.

This isn't over yet.
