hi,
I can't use the webster dictionary now. Everytime I look for a very simple
word like 'sit', it will say :The webster server has failed to answer the request to look up your word.
This could be because the webster server is down, or because your word is
too long and the server can't find it. Try looking up "tree" -- if that
works, then you've probably misspelled your word. If it fails, then send
mail to bug-sipb@ATHENA.MIT.EDU to let the SIPB know that the server is
broken.' Then if I type anything on the screen, it will not appear there.
