I installed Suse 10.1 and firefox randomly gets the following error from the webpages it tries to open with the title as 400 Bad Request

Code:
Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.

Request header field is missing colon separator.

348_i-1165128672_%7D

I get this once for every 3 pages i try to open, thereabout.

When I refresh or go back and then click on the link again, I have a 1 in 3 chance of getting the page or i repeatedly get the same error. After googling, i found that the cookies might be to blame, but i just cleared all my private data and it was ok for a minute or two and again, i am getting this error.

Our proxy in Kerala is Analogx and I use only http 1.0 for both network and proxy connections (since analogx only supports that). I changed this from about:config.

Firefox on windows with the same setting works fine.

i have only google browser sync and session saver. I have set google sync not to sync tabs and windows, so both should not clash. I dont have the same problem with firefox 1.5 on my windows system though.

The problem only got worse now. I get 4 errors for every 5 tries. I am having to boot into windows just to get to thinkdigit forums. :-D
