well, we're all volunteers & some of us are experts & we try to help ...

if you have access to lynx.cfg -- ie can change it -- ,
goto the appropriate line & make SET_COOKIES:FALSE :
then all cookie headers will be ignored,
unless you use -cookies , which will toggle them on again;
otherwise, you need a simple script to call up lynx -cookies each time;
depending on system restrictions, you can create your own lynx.cfg ,
accessing it via lynx -cfg=path , again using a script for convenience.
if you have shell access, you can easily compile your own Lynx:
goto www.slcc.edu/lynx/release/ for the latest 2-8,
which comes with full instructions; ask again here if necessary.
