Dusty,
I've noticed something unusual in the
logfiles for my IIS website. When someone downloads a page you normally get a
number of entries (based upon the complexity of the page) by a single IP
address. But when someone downloads from AOL, I get the same number of entries
but by several IP addresses in the same class C group.
Is this the same
kind of "round-robin proxy" stuff you're referring to?

Thanks for the in-sight on this -V.
Maybe I will get a chance to install
AOL on one of these boxes and see if I
can figure out what it is doing.
Anyone else know anything about AOL
software? Other than the fact it
really messes up a good
connection?

AOL [now] auto-configures their browser to use server
based caching or http-proxy. All outbound web requests go to the cache device
on port 80. That does not do well with non-standard ports, especially if they
are using "netCache" boxes. They are header killers. Http headers check in but
they don't check out! The IE browser is not configured automatically to go
through the HTTP-Proxy and so you get to do straight IP. I have not figured
out yet if there is a way to disable HTTP-Proxying in the AOL browser... Seems
like a new function as my older AOL users are not running into this.
