"intermittent" POST problem in ASP 2.29

Hello,
	I have read the other posts regarding this issue, that was
fixed in 2.29. Although we still get some intermittent faults, with
ASP scripts operating on "large" POST requests. Although the likelihood
of a failure has dropped considerably, it does still fail every now and
then. Especially with some versions of IE, whereas Netscape running on
both Unix and windows seems to work better and produce a failure only
rarely.

Also, if a fix is not speedy enough for you, you can downgrade
to Apache::ASP 2.21 which might be more stable in this regards.

If a downgrade to 2.21 is not a fix, then this is more likely
also a CGI.pm problem too.

Is this with large file uploads???

One thing I found when working with file uploads is that upgrading
my CGI.pm to 2.78 made some odd file upload problems go away, where
before I was using some 2.5x version.

If this is some other kind of POST, or if upgrading to CGI.pm 
does not help, let me know, and I can try another fix.  Should
we do so, please describe better what your "intermittent faults"
are exactly, or at least the behaviour of the system/browser under 
these conditions.
