I don't beleive this is a PHP bug.  We started receiving similar
problem reports at the university I work for after the latest Internet
Explorer security update was released.  I came across the following
Microsoft Knowledge Base article yesterday and the software update
linked under the Resolution section appears to fix the problem:

Can not reproduce using latest CVS (or even with 4.3.4)

I will wait for the definite release. I can however allready add these
comments:



- only occurs on SSL

- occurs when some fields (no reserved words as names) have spaces,
numeric values, and perhaps others.



In the meantime I moved to just HTTP instead of HTTPS

Just try the snapshot first.

my httpd.conf only mentions:



AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4 .php3 .phtml .php

AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps



However I have found a key to the origin: apparently the values I enter
in the form influence the problem. I have been able to reproduce but
cannot figure out any logic. I have to mention I'm only using a-zA-Z
and - signs..

it's like black magic...



I have not yet installed the snapshot, will definitely await final
release. I have to mention as well that I just upgraded to 4.3.4 from
4.3.2 where the problem occured as well.

Obviously you are not using Apache2, so



Please try using this CVS snapshot:



  http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz



For Windows:



  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-

latest.zip

I wasted 2 full days tracking down something that looks very similar to
this. In my case it's limited to IE and SSL only. Very intermitant.
What solved it for us was this:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;831167



and adding 

SetEnvIf User-Agent .*MSIE.* nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown

to our apache config in the ssl enabled virtualhost section. Give it a
shot and see if it works for you too.
