Unrelated to original problem, but WTF is this?

FWIW, r3dfox passes whatever this is and lets you in (eventually).

The WWW has become such an unpleasant place.

It's Cloudflare, Jim, but not as we know it. Anubis is another clunky piece of software developed by people who believe that only selected browsers are allowed to use the internet. It seems to be predicated on the idea that any non-conformant browser must be evil.

Ironically, https://forums.mozillazine.org/ are using the exact same thing.

I can pass the anime girl hash quicker than CloudFlare in New Moon, and it doesn't come back for some time. Cloudflare doesn't like when I switch to another application while it is milling. It wants me to keep it in the foreground and look at it.

Anubis,the clunky piece of software developed by non-conformant browser-hating people protects those kind of websites to avoid AI crawling.

yeah, but it is too late to replace the release. for a workaround, replace xul.dll from previous release should be fine.

Anubis (from Egyptian mythology) was also the name of a villainous character on the Stargate SG-1 television series.

AI crawling sounds bad but I'm not sure why, what it is, how it differs from ordinary Web crawling, or why robots.txt cannot be relied on.
