Please post your system info from MC help.
Is it a European system? Can something be stripping out the "/" ?
This is a US based machine. All MJ8's and MC9's up through 9.0.88 worked as far as I can remember.

The machine is a Nforce based MSI motherboard with an Althlon XP2100+ and 512MB of memory. I have no firewall software running on the machine. So, the only thing that could be removing the '/' is MC or Windows XP. Internet Explorer is sending it's requests with the '/', so I doubt it's the OS.
