Hi Carlos,
I don't think this problem has anything to
do with browser identification.

The first page contains javascript which constructs
a url algorithmically and loads the next page from it.
Extra confusion is probably caused by the fact
that the initial page contains a lot of binary
(~130kb) in the middle, sandwiched between valid-looking
html.
This binary appears to be simply to make the page
load more slowly so that the speed can be measured.
But the binary part of the page contains some characters
which can't be printed in the Rebol console.
Those characters prevent the entire page being printed,
soon after the binary begins.
You can read the whole page by doing this:
url: http://www.altanet.psi.br/velocidade/initialmeter.php
bin: read/binary url
write/binary %page.html bin
Then open page.html in your favourite editor.
You could time the page download and use rebol to construct
the url in a similar way as the javascript does.
Regards,
Anton.
