Web site redirects

C

curt

Is there freeware that, given a URL, can tell me the actual location it
gets redirected to. For example, if I go to memritv.org and click to
download one of the videos like this:
http://memritv.org/Download.asp?P1=278

I get redirected here for the mpg download:
http://server5.castup.net:4040/server12/71577090-13.mpg

Leechget is showing me this. However, I would just like freeware to give
me the redirected site so I can use that with Star Downloader (which
doesn't seem to follow the links like LeechGet does).

Thanks!

Check if your browser have option to disable automatic redirection.
Opera does it for me (under Tools -> Preferences - Network - Privacy).
With no redirection it will stop and show the next link as a "click
here" link on a empty page, for me to click if I want to proceed (or
close if not), or to copy the URL (right-click the link and do "Copy
link address" from the context menu).

In this case <http://memritv.org/Download.asp?P1=278>
pointed to
<http://switch3.castup.net/cunet/gm.asp?ClipMediaID=40719&ak=null>
pointed to
<http://server5.castup.net:4040/server12/71577090-13.mpg>

All the best
