Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
        Key: CORE-15
    Summary: HTTP header "Connection: close" ignored
       Type: Bug

     Status: Open
   Priority: Critical

    Project: core
 Components: 
             downloader

   Assignee: Greg Bildson
   Reporter: Beyers Cronje

    Created: Wed, 25 May 2005 11:02 AM
    Updated: Wed, 25 May 2005 11:02 AM
Environment: Limewire - all

Description:
The dowloader does not comply with RFC 2616 Section 14.10 using the HTTP/1.1  "Connection: close" header. 

A Limewire client receiving a response from a remote host running HTTP/1.1 with "Connection: close" header specified in the response message, ignores this field and still handles the connection as a persistent connection.

According to RFC2616:
" HTTP/1.1 defines the "close" connection option for the sender to signal that the connection will be closed after completion of the response. For example,

       Connection: close

in either the request or the response header fields indicates that the connection SHOULD NOT be considered `persistent' (section 8.1) after the current request/response is complete. "
