I'm not familiar with HTTP/1.1 "parts", but I am fairly confident that it's using byterange requests. I can see it request 32KB then make several other requests for different sizes. I tried eliminating the Accept-Ranges header in the response and other kludges, but it continued. Some things to check for more info on Adobe workings... http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/3d76.htm http://www.adobe.com/support/techguides/acrobat/byteserve/byteservmain.html Incidentally, we didn't notice this before 2.4 (but I didn't have all of my PDF tools installed then, so maybe the files weren't so large?). --kyler
