Firewall is using http-gw v. 1.17. Problem seems to be limited to
web pages which use POST-method to get user input. When using those
forms Netscape always puts out following warning: "A network error
occured while Netscape was receiving data. (Network Error:
Connection reset by peer)".

http-gw needs to be fixed to read all bytes sent to it before closing
the TCP socket. This is what elicits the resets...
