Description

Cordova serve isn't working correctly with IE11.
The landing page works, but clicking a platform gives a error message from IE11. The error is "This page can't be displayed".
The same url is working in Pale Moon (firefox).

Tested on master and 3.2.0 rc.

Steps to reproduce on Windows8.

• cordova create . com.example.hello HelloWorld
• cordova platform add android
• cordova serve
• IE11 open landing page
• IE11 Click Android, error appears

Use another browser and the same steps work.
Note: The cordova log is giving a status code 200 with IE11.
