That's isn't 'a' header, its a whole GET request and response. I'm
assuming there is a bit of javascript that appears on every page of
your site that makes the browser send this GET request. The best
option would be to load up your website in a browser and look
through the code or look through the code on the web server and find
out where that request is coming from.
At least you can be sure that nothing malicious is going on from
your website as this request is met by a 404 meaning that the
supposed malicious script does not exist.

No he should NOT go there using normal browser. If this is drive-by attack URL might get to be alive and he would get 
infected. At least I suggest him to disable javascript, but that might not help if URL is using other attack vector 
like vulnerability of PDF-reader or browser. I would like to investigate this issue, but I haven't received URL to the 
web-site even I requested it.
