Hey Iain, I would be willing to be anything this is caused by a header from Tomcat. IE is particularly finicky about this. The fix to context.xml for basic/form auth turns off a particular header that IE chokes on under SSL with binary content such as SWF, PDF, etc. If you're familiar with J2EE filters, that's the best way to deal with this since you can't intercept the http header using SSL with any tools like tcptunnel, etc.

And it just hangs around like that forever. Maybe I should go look into Tomcat and see if there is a way to disable the caching of the headers in 5.5.15 Cheers, Iain --- In [email protected], "Carson Hager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Got it.
