Strange problem with url redirecting when clicking on a link

[Damien Sarazin]

Here is another lead that might be near the truth !

I am not allowed to do tests on the website until tomorrow morning since there is too much traffic atm.

But i'll try to set UseCanonicalName Off in apache conf and to catch paquets with tcpdump.
I'll tell you if it resolved the problem.
