[GLLUG] Problems accessing Clist (MSU class lists)

[Mike Szumlinski]

Not having a login I can use to view these, I'm not sure what exactly 
is going on...but I get an 'Authorization Required' using Mozilla, 
Opera, Netscape 7, iCab, Chimera, and IE.  There doesn't seem to be any 
difference in the error messages between browsers.
