Re: Apache/PHP4/SSL, downloads fail with IE 5.5 only when using sessions

Goto SquirrelMail <http://www.squirrelmail.org/> and search for the "Infamous IE with SSL bug" (their wording). If I remember correctly it has to do with IE not implementing correctly HTTP/1.1 protocol (so you have to switch to HTTP/1.0 whenever an IE browser hits you) and something about the cache of SSL sessions (...and I don't remember what you should do in that case). -Stathis.
