We also had the same "Spurious" openssl problem that seemed to plague IE
4.00.x to IE5.00.2014.0216.
We previously had our servers working "in-house" with these IE versions but
when we moved them
to our co-location facility a few miles away we suddenly had this problem.
We thought there something up with the latency of the SSL negotiation so we
changed the SSLSessionCache from "none" to
"dbm:/some/path/to/dbm/cache" and it seemed to work.
I don't know if this is necessarily an inadequacy in IE but they seemed to
fix it in later revisions.
Hope this helps,
Phil Deacon
