Thanks for your kind reply.


Those are 'broken' browsers that do not follow the http standard
properly.
which browers? Netscape or Opera? mostly use MSIE, right?


Stop using non-standards complient browsers. Sometimes changes to
standards are not 'enhancements'.
There are so lots of people which use different browser, then you mean that there is not any solution to solve this problem at iptables level?


Thanks for your reply.
