Hi FishNix,

Not sure why you need a WHILE loop for removing an x-FORWARDED-FOR header

You should be able to do it in the following manner 

rule strip_xforwardedfor {
   when HTTP_REQUEST {
     if { [HTTP::header exists X-Forwarded-For] } {
       HTTP::header remove X-Forwarded-For
     }
  }
}

I hope this helps
