It doesn't do anything special. The behaviour of the server is
determined by the HTTP headers sent by The Grinder. Scripts recorded by
the TCP Proxy simply record whatever the browser sends, and resends
that. Because of this, you might decide to clean out the browser cache
before recording your script. Also, see
