10630	[PATCH] GZipMiddleware does not handle all MSIE issues.	Sebastian Noack	nobody	There is a hook in the GZipMiddleware which bypass compression for javascript and pdfs, if user agent is MSIE. But I had to note that there are more situations where MSIE sucks. For example zip archives are not decompressed by Internet Explorer, instead MSIE saves a gzip compressed zip archive (which you can't open), even when using the latest version of Internet Explorer. So because of MSIE sucks so much and there might be another cases where compression leads to problems, I think the best aproach is to bypass compression for each non-text content type, when using MSIE. I have written a patch for that, see attachment.		closed	HTTP handling	1.0		fixed			Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
