Dallas,

By running a curl hit repeatedly on the RE server I reproduced the
problem.  The cmd sent was:

curl -w %{http_code} --compressed -D /tmp/curl_headers -O -R -s -S  
http://www.rulesemporium.com/rules/99_FVGT_Tripwire.cf

The headers sent back were as follows:

HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Connection: Close
Pragma: no-cache
cache-control: no-cache
Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1

The page body returned was:

<HTML><HEAD><META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0.1">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1">
</HEAD></HTML>

A normal fetch of the actual .cf file returns these headers:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
