I have not been able to reproduce this yet, but I found a problem where I started seeing URLs like this:
http://www.example.org/postfix.php/phorum/phorum/phorum/list.php?f=3&a rticle_id=520
These URLs exist:
http://www.example.org/postfix.php http://www.example.org/phorum/list.php?f=3&article_id=520
Something similar to this can be caused by a trailing slash on a URL that ends in a file name. For example
http://www.example.org/index.html/
will be treated as if index.html is a directory for purposes of building URL's for the links on the page. So you might then end up with something like http://www.example.org/index.html/phorum/. A request for this URL would again return index.html for indexing (with phorum passed as extra data in the request), but now new URL's would be built relative to http://www.example.org/index.html/phorum/, which would give you a http://www.example.org/index.html/phorum/phorum/. And so on.
When I have run into this problem in the past, I have added something like /index.html/ to the 'exclude_urls'.
