Julien,

You will want to tune your http_inspect preprocessor by creating Web
Server profiles for each of your web servers. Documentation is available
at
http://www.snort.org/docs/snort_htmanuals/htmanual_260/node11.html#SECTION003111000000000000000

Read and understand the different http_inspect_server options and decide
which ones to use.

Example:

preprocessor http_inspect_server: server 10.1.1.1 \
                        ports { 80 3128 8080 } \
                        flow_depth 0 \
                        ascii no \
                        double_decode yes \
                        non_rfc_char { 0x00 } \
                        chunk_length 500000 \
                        non_strict \
                        no_alerts

Hi,

I get a lot of DOUBLE DECODING ATTACK when http preprocessor is active, but it is only false positives... I do not 
want to desactivate http preprocessor. How can I do ?

Thanks.
