414 - Request-URI Too Long

I am having the same problem and noted the same thing with Firefox working and Safari not.

Go up to Safari (upper left corner next to Apple logo)
Then to Preferences > Security > Show Cookies> type in Drudgereport.

Delete all DR cookies that show up.
Restart Safari.

Any Better?

EXCellent!
Glad you're all sorted now!

Thank you too--that worked for me too. (Not sure why but that's not important!)

Very good, James.
That's what's great about these forums . . .
Solutions just keep on going, and going, and going . . .
Thanks for letting us know.

Ditto
Drudge report must be somehow hacked or disabled. I get the 414 message about 99% of the time.

Thanks! This tip also worked for a "413 request entity too large" error I was getting after installing Safari 4.0.5. Glad I found your solution, I was baffled Firefox would load the page but Safari wouldn't.

Bad cookies!
