Re: [squid-users] http 1.1 thru proxies

Ok, well Ive found some hints at the iPlanet knowledgebase. It talks about
some servers (eg IIS) not dealing with Proxy-Connection and Content-Length
headers properly...

so Ive anonymised these two headers and it works, but, my questions is, with
limited knowledge this deep into http, what other sites with anonymising
those headers affect?
