Local (real!) IP-Address in Browser Header ?!

Hi,

I am using ASL V5.013 with HTTP Proxy in Standard Mode and Anonymity set to None; Browser is IE6

I found the folowing Information in my Browser Header:
X-Forwarded-For: 192.168.xxx.xxx

Why is this IP given out to a Website?? No Website needs this Information (besides building an Infrastructure Map of my Network BEHIND my Firewall... [:O])

I know that i can use the Anonymity setting "Paranoid" but then i lose the Cookies...

Is there a way of blocking the "X-Forwarded-For" without blocking Cookies ??

this header is needed by the content filter (for profile assignment). the contetn filter deletes this header from the request but if no cf is used the request goes out. this can (and will be fixed ion one of the future up2dates)

a whitelist for the proxy if switched to paranoid mode would be verry nice. so that cookies and all the stuff is blocked, but for whitlisted sites cookies are enabled (ebay etc ;-) ).
