That was my guess as well - if I'm correct, though, this has the unfortunate side effect of disabling it for everyone right now? That's a bit of a bummer, because this server is getting whacked pretty heavily and anything I can do to improve performace is key. Is it possible to do KeepAlive filtering on *any* Via header, or perhaps by remote IP address? In any case, thanks for the help and the quick response. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. David.
