Ya must got something hosed, I use almost FireFox exclusively and it
works flawlessly (except of course on the sites that require IE for
things like client-side VBSscript and what-not).  I believe HTTP 1.1 is
a default for all communication.  I don't ever remember seeing any
session traces that use 1.0.  Great thing is that it also understands
Integrated Authorization!

BTW- rtfm :)

Hey guys,

OK, I finally gave in an downloaded Firefox to see what the hubbub was
about. I configured it to use the autoconfig script and it appears to
actually understand it, as it is working as a Web proxy client based on
observing the real time logging on the ISA firewall.

However, compared to IE, the thing is a slow pig! I noticed that there
wasn't an option to configure it to use HTTP 1.1 through proxy
connections. Anyone know if this is a default setting, not a default
setting, or something I have to spend hours on open sources sites trying
to find the answer to after being pummeled with RTFM responses?

Thanks!
