[Snort-sigs] False positive - sid:1333

Subject: [Snort-sigs] False positive - sid:1333

/usr/local/share/snort/web-attacks.rules:alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HTTP_SERVERS $HTTP_PORTS (msg:"WEB-ATTACKS id command attempt"; flow:to_server,established; content:"|3B|id"; nocase; classtype:web-application-attack; sid:1333; rev:6;)

This is a bit of a mystery. I can't find the string ";id" anywhere in the packet.

I don't know what this alert is triggering on. If it was in hex, it would be |3B 69 64|, but I don't see that anywhere either. There are four 3Bs (;), but none are followed by 69 (i). So what the heck is this thing triggering on?
