I've installed mod_gzip 1.3.26.1a on the server. Ever
since then I've been having the following problems.

1) On Internet Explorer, the web pages do not cache at
all. It's hard to tell on broadband connections, but on
dial up it's horrendous! The pages just don't cache!

2) Also, the images, when I right click to save as, it
shows up as a bitmap image for all images!
Including .jpg, .gif, etc. You can view this at the
following website:

www.tunercarz.com, right click on any of the graphics
and it wants to save as a bitmap, then when you try to
open, says it's not a valid bitmap file.

This is happening will all sites on the server! When I set
the httpd.conf file to exclude mod_gzip, everythign
works perfectly!! Please help!

    Known browser bug of MSIE.

    See http://www.schroepl.net/projekte/mod_gzip/cache.htm for
    a detailed description and a workaround.
