I have installed mod_gzip on my apache server. And as of this writing i looked into my mod_gzip logfile and found that out of 9468 requests 1707 were NO_ACCEPT_ENCODING denies and 7641 were EXCLUDED (images mostly, I have them excluded in mod_gzip.conf) and the rest were 404's and the like. What I am wondering is this normal behaviour? I would think more browser's would accept the encoding type. I know mine does and it says NO_ACCEPT_ENCODING for me. I think there may be something hacking up the request header before it gets to the mod_gzip. If you know something that does this please let me know. I have the standard SSL, PHP, Cold Fusion setup:
