thanks
i want mention that i am only interested in http client GET requests
i wont scan for http server response.
I added client_flow_depth 0   and it seems to be working fine.
Will have to test more and with different browsers

Hi Eoin/ rmklm
Thanks for reply
I am running Version 2.9.0.2 IPv6 (Build 92)
I prefer to find and update any config file paramters than upgrading to .5
Could you please let me know where I can find VRT rulepack
Thanks

you can download the VRT rulesets and configs at this location:

snort.conf that is all fixed:
