bad request to google cache 19. Jun 2009

Bad Request

Those who use Safari 3 on Mac OX 10.5 Leopard might have experienced problems when using the cache functionality of the Google search. After some weeks of Safari usage suddenly all Google cache pages lead to the following error message.

Bad Request - Your client has issued a malformed or illegal request.

Clearing Safaris cache doesn’t help. Searching for google in the cookie list and deleting all hits doesn’t help. What does help is deleting all cookies. This of course is a very cumbersome solution since now you have to login again on all your websites and you lose all your preferences. To avoid this you can simply delete all cookie list entries corresponding to the ip adress displayed in the address bar when looking at the google cache error page. Be careful to press Remove and not Remove all since the latter wipes out all cookies even those that are not marked. So in my case I’d simply search for 209.85.129.132 and delete all hits.

Booyah, this solves the problem!
