State-Changed-Why:
Your server is broken.  If you telnet to port 80
and do a:

GET /graphics/ghfolders.map?224,52 HTTP/1.0


(empty line after the GET line), it sends a response
and then hangs; it does not close the TCP connection.  This
can be seen as nothing but a bug in the server.  Some
clients may work around it by closing the connection
themself once they get a particular number of bytes,
but for various reasons that is messy in Apache and
should be unnecessary.

Contact Netscape to see if they have a fix.
