I'm not sure I understand what you mean.  In any case, you should really figure
where exactly the "http://" prefix disappears.  For instance, assuming tcpdump
is available on your system, you could use the following commands to dump
polipo/browser and polipo/web traffic:
tcpdump -s 65535 -w browser-polipo.dump port 8123
tcpdump -s 65535 -w polipo-web.dump port 80

Then open the files with wireshark to isolate the faulty requests.  If you find
out that polipo receives paquets containing "http://" but drops it internally,
or fails to cache it in some other way, then please report the bug here.
