	I use:

	ENABLE_LYNXRC:useragent:ON

in lynx.cfg makes the value persist.

Why do I have to complete a CAPTCHA?
        Completing the CAPTCHA proves you are a human and gives you temporary access to the web property.
What can I do to prevent this in the future?
        If you are on a personal connection, like at home, you can run an anti-virus scan on your device to make sure it is not infected with malware.
        If you are at an office or shared network, you can ask the network administrator to run a scan across the network looking for misconfigured or infected
devices.
        Another way to prevent getting this page in the future is to use Privacy Pass. You may need to download version 2.0 now from the [1]Firefox Add-ons Store.

	I think no user-agent header will make a difference.  BTW
cookies are enabled in my lynx; other sites use them successfully.
