Yes, I'm getting the following length content errors, among others:

Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH | bootstrap.min.css:1
+

Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH | bootstrap.min.js:1
+

Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH | jquery.min.js:1 +

I'm an old school programmer, so please forgive my ignorance, but I assume that
there is some sort of "CHECK" (old school term, sorry) going on as a security
check (?).  Which makes me ask 1) why? and 2) who the &^*$ cares, just display
it!

I seriously don't think it is something that sbbs' webserver is doing.  Mainly
because I've seen the same type set up on other machines, and they wouldn't
have this issue.  However, what you have suggested might be at least good for
troubleshooting so I don't have to wonder if that's going on.  I'll check it
out.
