    IE 6 hangs after XmlHttprequest for 5 minutes

    Hello,

    i have a ajax-webapp (prototype.js) which works without any problems
    with IE (also 6.0), FireFox, Opera etc..

    Now I have a single client (W2K, IE 6.0.2800.1106, SP1) who has a
    strange problem.
    Every time, the client sends an async.-POST-xmlhttprequest, IE sends
    the request succesfully after 5 minutes - i don't know, what IE does
    during this 5 minutes.

    For test you can visit https://www.schuldenonline.at/connection and
    make a single request or send multiple requests.

    Besides: I know there are problems when using SSL, IE 6.0 and the
    parameter "keep-alive". Therefore the connection after every request
    will be closed.

    Can anyone help me to find out what the reason for this strange
    behavior is?

    Thanks
    Ludwig Pfefferkorn

    I think it would help if you build the same request from scratch
    without using Prototype.js. Then you will know if it is the library or
    not and you may be able to determine what is causing the problem. If
    it is the library then you can ask on the rails spinoffs list which is
    the official Prototype.js help line.

    It seems the consensus on comp.lang.javas cript is that Prototype.js is
    better avoided than used.

      Thank you for your concerning with my problem.
      Now I could solve the problem. The problem was the wininet.dll
      6.0.2800.1106 from the patch http://support.microsoft.com/kb/328970/de.
      The strange behavior stops if I install the patch
      http://www.microsoft.com/austria/tec.../ms06-067.mspx or I
      only replace the wininet.dll 6.0.2800.1106 by wininet.dll
      6.0.2800.1579.
