I have never observed this problem and I have no idea what might be causing it.

You can get some additional debug info that might help, by editing the
validator/log4j.properties file and making these changes:

-log4j.logger.org=WARN
+log4j.logger.org=DEBUG

-log4j.logger.nu.validator.servlet.VerifierServlet=FATAL
+log4j.logger.nu.validator.servlet.VerifierServlet=DEBUG

Beyond that, I'm stumped.
