Who added the "Proxy-Connection" request header ? There is no such header 
specified in RFC 2616. "Proxy-Connection" is strictly a response header! From 
the client persistency should always be specified through the "Connection: " 
header in HTTP/1.1 whether you are talking to a proxy or the target server.
