Why this should have a knockon effect on a small subset of MS browsers, I don't know. Especially confusingly random is the requirement for a certain amount of data to break these browsers. You can configure IE for use of HTTP 1.0 or HTTP 1.1.
I would expect it to close connections after each request for HTTP 1.0 mode. Then, a correct Content-Length is of much less importance. In HTTP 1.1 mode, IE is very strict with Content-Length. Dieter
