+ 
+       <p><span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> marks sockets as tainted
+       when it can't use them to serve additional requests. This does not
+       necessarily mean that something went wrong and information about
+       tainted sockets is only logged if connection debugging is enabled
+       (debug 2).</p>
+ 
+       <p>For example server sockets that were used for CONNECT requests
+       (which are used to tunnel https:// requests) are considered tainted
+       once the client closed its connection to <span class=
+       "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span>. Technically <span class=
+       "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> could keep the connection to the server
+       open, but the server would not accept requests that do not belong to
+       the previous TLS/SSL session (and the client may even have terminated
+       the session).</p>
+ 
+       <p>Server sockets are also marked tainted when a client requests a
+       resource, but closes the connection before <span class=
+       "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> has completely received (and forwarded)
+       the resource to the client. In this case the server would (probably)
+       accept additional requests, but <span class=
+       "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> could not get the response without
+       completely reading the leftovers from the previous response.</p>
+ 
+       <p>These are just two examples, there are currently a bit more than 25
+       scenarios in which a socket is considered tainted.</p>
+ 
+       <p>While sockets can also be marked tainted as a result of a technical
+       problem that may be worth fixing, the problem will be explicitly logged
+       as error.</p>
