portaudit and portsnap acting silly.

[Dave Overton]

Fixed.

For reference, it was squid, happily caching the data for me.

Makes one wonder why the portsnap and portaudit servers or clients aren't
http compliant if they use http protocols... Especially since the author of
portsnap suggests a cache server for speed....

Oh well...
