Re: Google Chrome 47.0.2526.73M broken NTLM proxy authentication

[Seth Mos <seth.mos () dds nl>]

A quick update, Google Chrome engineering did cut a new release with a
fix for this but it's not available yet.

https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=544255

The current workaround is to shrink your return headers smaller then
4096 bytes to prevent the authentication popup.

Get ready for a rough monday morning, we've already had to field quite a
few calls, and the GPO policy doesn't work, yay.

Dear Google, your internet browser doesn't browse the internet, please
make haste.

Kind regards,

Seth
