The problem that you're having with Lynx could be caused by the highlighting
options of ProTERM. Look in the Misc menu, under Preferences. On the 
Preferences dialog, click on "More" to get another screen of preferences.
On that screen, you will see a series of checkboxes with the heading
"Attributes to display in Inverse." Change those so that only "Reverse" is
checked. (There may be other configs that work too, but that's what I use.)
You won't be able to see where the links are, but at least you'll know which
one you're on when you get to it.
