Lee Francis, I agree with Odi that incorrect Content-Length value appears to be the culprit. I see a way to work the problem around, though. However, the workaround is likely to cost you some performance. The problem can be solved by not re-using persistent connections. If you use HTTP/1.0 or instruct the server to not keep the connection alive, all the garbage from the previous request will no longer be in the way of the subsequent one The preferred way to disable persistent connections is to send "Connection: close" directive with the request.

But the response is 283 bytes. (the two [0xfffd] sequences are one byte each). Nothing we can do here I fear.
