NO IT DOESN'T.  my.yahoo.com works *fine* with w3m, so I for one believe
that if it's not working with konqy, it's a bug.  I haven't tried imdb.com
yet, but I've noticed that konqy is not handling hotmail properly.  
Honestly, if it's a JS problem, then I would have no problem with us
emulating the NS/IE JS classes verbatim.  But the user-agent, no.

Because it's not the user agent that's a problem.
