This problem started a few weeks ago.
Whenever I navigate to any page at http://clhs.lisp.se
— for example this one: http://clhs.lisp.se/Body/m_w_open.htm
— my browser doesn't display the page normally, but instead attempts to download the page as an HTML file.
This happens in Chrome, Firefox, Brave, Vivaldi and Opera; but not in Internet Explorer or Edge. It used to work fine in all browsers.
Why does it happen, and how can I make it work normally? Using IE or Edge is not an option.

Not an answer to the question asked, but correctly-working copies of CLHS are available at http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/lw50/CLHS/Front/index.htm and http://www.ai.mit.edu/projects/iiip/doc/CommonLISP/HyperSpec/FrontMatter/ (IMHO the proper home; I knew Kent at the time he worked there)

I would recommend framing it as “While others are providing specifics explaining why that site is not loading as expected — and how there is a potential risk in attempting to access that site — that site is merely a mirror of content available elsewhere like these sites.” – JakeGould – 2019-09-22T15:35:12.300
@dave_thompson_085 Thank you, those links will suffice until the site admins fix the issue. Post as an answer and I will accept it. – Sod Almighty – 2019-09-23T00:04:27.147
