Thanks for the tip, Ryan.
Unfortunately, I have the same problem with either
MSIE or Netscape. I have MSIE HTTP1.1 disabled -- but
the whole HTTP1.1 issue really isn't an problem with
FW4.1 SP2 anymore -- since CP put the fix in objects.C
I called Websense to complain, and they blamed FW (of
course). But, just to be fair -- I re-installed
v4.2.1 as recommended by Websense support. I don't
know if that will do the trick. I find out soon enough
today.
Websense v3.11 worked okay. I may have to down grade.
<sigh>
Thanks! -- Chris
