By the way, I've got a slight correction to make regarding my previous email. epiphany-browser 2.22.3-9 opens the first page it is given after start (say, http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/people/thoare/), but fails to open other pages from the research.microsoft.com domain. So your argument is invalid. Yes, it is possible to get a perfect page from the network, just restart epiphany and type the address in. Or open lynx with the page name on the command line. And iceweasel can't do it, although it is practically possible. So it is a bug in iceweasel - I'm reopening it.

You also said you had problems with konqueror. And apparently random
problems with epiphany. You should really investigate at the network
level, either with a network sniffer (wireshark) or some other means
(e.g. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/netlib/http/http-debugging.html)
