Our users are using Microsoft IE on Windows platforms, none are on
Macintosh. We tried the fix you mentioned, as also noted in the FAQ for
mod_ssl under the heading "When I connect via HTTPS to an Apache + mod_ssl +
OpenSSL server with Microsoft Internet Explorer (MSIE) I get various I/O
errors", but it did not work. In fact, we seemed to get more of the errors.
Any other suggestions?

We've discussed issues with MSIE on Mac before, the proper fix appears to be
the following:
BrowserMatch "MSIE [1-4]" nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \
downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0
BrowserMatch "MSIE [5-9]" ssl-unclean-shutdown
Apparently MSIE on the Mac doesn't like to have keep alive turned off when
ssl is turned on.
This appears to work well for MSIE on Windows as well. Turning off SSLv3
introduces issues with some versions of Netscape.
