Had this problem before. Solved it. Forgot how. Got it again. Applied to
Thawte for the answer. I received these instructions from Thawte today:

___________________________
Please try this in your SSL virtual host section,
--
SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown

This information, and plenty more from the openssl-users list,

The problem stems from a bug in schannel.dll. When the server is NT IIS and
the browser is not MS or when the browser is MS and the server is not then
schannel.dll will sometimes choose the wrong key upon reconnect. See
