    3. I use the MTA SZTAKI dictionary frequently, but the address I use is http://dict.sztaki.hu/english-hungarian.

What I got was a page welcoming me to Debian and Apache and other things I don't want and they tell me the Apache has installed on my computer. Now this is a far cry from a dictionary. I don't like it. I hope I can delete whatever they installed!
