Weird "Bad Request " error using MS Edge
I am finding that recently I've been getting a "Bad Request" error whenever I attempt to browse the forums using MS Edge. The error I get is:
Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.
This seems to have started happening very recently, and as near as I can tell only happens with the MS Edge browser. If I connect to one of the forums things will work fine, but if I then click a link to another forum I'll get the error. It seems that once I get the error, it will continue to error until I restart Edge -clicking on any link (i.e. a forum topic) or button at that point generates the error until I restart the browser. .I am running MS Edge version 44.17763.1.0
As near as I can tell this only seems to happen with This forum. I can't seem to find any other site where this happens. Bizarre.

Because each site generally uses their own, multiple, cookies this issue generally only occurs to one site at a given time. One of the CorvetteForum cookies in your browser is corrupt and thus needs cleared.
