I know this fails on all 4.0 versions of IE. I haven't tested on 5.0 but
one cannot run a production site without supporting 4.0 versions so I don't
think it matters. It was a weird thing where like after 60 seconds a
refresh causes a hang under ssl. You could always comment out the line in
the config and try yourself.
