Well, just to add more ideas to this thread, you can always check the "Date" header returned by the
HTTP protocol after requesting that URL: (put this in one line)

buanzo@bbs ~ $ printf "GET /od/capturetvwithacomputer/ht/htnti.htm HTTP/1.0\nHost:
dvr.about.com\n\n" | nc dvr.about.com 80 | head |grep -E --color=yes ^Date
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2006 12:06:52 GMT

(try removing the head and grep at the end, and replace by less, so you can see the headers and the
html in the request's body).
