    Re: jump.cgi —Mike Stanley
   (...) back (...) Just tried it here at work. Our largest single pipe to the commodity internet is a DS-3 through Qwest and that's the link I'm tracing from me to you (actually it drops into Sprint to get to Pair). Same delay time - up to 4 seconds. (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: jump.cgi —Todd Lehman
   (...) Wow, that it soooo freaking bizarre. And it's consistent? Must be something deeper and stranger going on here. (...) Would it be possible to make a screen shot of it and write down the exact text? If it's putting in underscores, that's very (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

     (...) Can't help you there, I only have MSIE. (...) I did a screen capture of #2; you'll find it located temporarily at (URL) if you want. -- David Schilling (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: jump.cgi —Todd Lehman
     (...) OK, good, then this has nothing to do with jump.cgi per se (not that I thought it did, but it's better to be sure just in case). You're seeing the same thing from a different redirector. (The display.cgi script simply picks apart the ng name (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: jump.cgi —David Schilling
     (...) the first time it was this fast. Multiple times didn't improve the speed at all. (...) the delay. I didn't get a delay with mimg.cgi, (the first link) though. By the way, how did you get those long urls to not split across lines? -- David (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: jump.cgi —Todd Lehman
     (...) OK, that makes sense. It's only accessing one server there once the image is cached, and then it gives you a large image file. (...) That's totally bizarre too. Another redirection script on a completely different site, presumably doing (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: jump.cgi —Matthew Miller
     (...) I just tried this with IE 5.5 on Win95. No delays. (This is from home.) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: jump.cgi —Mike Stanley
   (...) Consistent across platforms using both IE 5.01 and IE 5.5. I did notice that using Navigator 4.08 on NT 4 showed now delay at all. So this is at least partially a problem with IE, which is not much of a surprise, but then again, IE is the only (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: jump.cgi —Todd Lehman
   (...) A-HA! OK, we're getting closer! Could you try the links contained in this article -- (URL) the last indented one which bounces to www.yahoo.com)? If that shows no delay for you under MSIE, then it's probably a good bet that the multiple (URL) (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: jump.cgi —Matthew Miller
   (...) I think it's specifically the multiple ":" characters. RFC 1738 mentions ":" as a reserved character -- that is, when it occurs in the scheme-specific part of a URL (URLs being <scheme>:<scheme-spe...fic-part>, of course) it should *only* be (...)
