Binary files don't load. #11

I'm using the proxy on Internet Explorer 6 running under Windows XP Service Pack 2. The proxy is running on Windows 10 21H2 and Python 3.6.8. My config is here: https://gist.github.com/wertercatt/c575c8cbf389eb7a6f8baac859c91457

When attempting to download a binary file through the proxy, such as http://download.microsoft.com:80/download/9/f/f/9ffc346d-55e9-420a-89fd-22d10d8f803f/ZooCardFlip.msi for example, the proxy kills the connection early and prevents the browser from actually completing the download.

I'm willing to provide any more details you need.

I couldn't reproduce your issue with latest master using IE6 on XP or other browsers. I did make several fixes to the HTTP stack in the past day, so I would appreciate it if you could test again with the latest master code.
