Well, the way the external filter works is this. It's just any exec program that accepts input from stdin and writing to std out. I just changed my filter so that it doesn't produce any output. > Are you sure that isn't just the default content the browser returns > when the server returns zero-content?

I am not getting any error logs. :( So, there's no way to find out whether it's crashing... I still believe that this occurs only for websites cookies... Could this be another bug in mod_ ext_filter?... Thank you! Your suggesting was very useful!

Perhaps your external filter program is crashing on these requests, causing the server to return nothing.
