I'm unsure what to do about this in general, but it's a known bug that
lynx will sometimes not respond to a HUP, which is generally what it
gets when people log out. I haven't looked at the code recently, so I
can't say if it's supposed to be fixed in the latest release. The
infoagents maintainer should check into this.
In the meantime, people with apropriate bits should keep an eye out
for rouge lynx processess on the dialups (all platforms, but I recall
it being especially bad on DECstations.)
