Hmmm...I'm confused. Can somebody explain this to me?

Netcraft does indeed report an Apache webserver running on FreeBSD.
But a HEAD request returns an IIS server?

The site www.wehavethewayout.com is running Rapidsite/Apa-1.3.14 (Unix) FrontPage/4.0.4.3 mod_ssl/2.7.1 OpenSSL/0.9.5a on FreeBSD.


$ telnet www.wehavethewayout.com 80
