Those are rather odd; it almost looks like they might be the result of a
MITM attack or other malicious redirect activity.  A quick Google search
shows one potential known malicious site with URLs of <server

Is anyone else experiencing issues with the mirror network (aside from the
usual timeouts and overall slow speeds)?
