on-rev "HTTP_UPGRADE_INSECURE_REQUESTS"

[Phil Davis]

WHAT JUST HAPPENED?  The desktop app I mentioned earlier is now (around 
6:15 PM Pacific time) suddenly no longer blowing up during login, and 
its normal speed has been restored. I suspect someone at Command Central 
changed a server setting... but I see my 
'HTTP_UPGRADE_INSECURE_REQUESTS' is still turned on.

Whatever magical thing happened, I'm very grateful. But I sure would 
like to know what it was so I can tell my client.

Thanks -
Phil
