Hi!

I have squid 2.4-stable2 cache proxy, and I have some error when I'm go to
www.excite.com and dailynews.yahoo.com.

When I'm use netscape 4.04 then everything works but when I'm use MS explorer
4.01 or Netscape 4.5, 4.7 or any verson then the download is not successfull.

I'm trace the traffic and I'm found one different in the two situation.

With the explorer and the netscape 4.5, 4,6. 4,7 etc browsers :

GET http://dailynews.yahoo.com/HTTP/1.0..Accept:image/gif,image/x-xbitmap,
image/jpeg,image/pjpe*/*..Referer:http://www.yahoo.com/..Accept-Language:
en-us..Accept-Encoding:gzip,deflate..User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE
       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

4.01; Windows NT;MATAV_IE_401_ENG)..Host:dailynews.yahoo.com..Proxy-Connection:
Keep-Alive..Cookie: B=7fk0efob54sng..Pro
...

The 'Accept-Encoding' line is missing, when I'm use netscape 4.04.

The answer is the question from the cache :

HTTP/1.0 200 OK..Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 14:59:14GMT..Cache-Control:private..
Content-Type:text/html..Content-Encoding:gzip..X-Cache:MISS from cache1.matav.h
                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
u..Age: 0..X-Cache: MISS from cache3.proxy.matav.hu..Proxy-Connection: close....

And come the binary data...

Why this happened ? Why send the data in gzip format the cache ?

Please help me, because our users very unhappy ...

My question is : How to fix this problen in the cache ???

If I'm not use the cache (direct connection), the download is successfull.

Thanks in advance!

Bye!Lajos
