Adding a "www." to the address makes it work properly: http://www.torproject.org.6297b13a687b521a59c6bd79188a2501ec03a065.exit

I'm actually not sure why that happens; I'm guessing it's a security feature not allowing domain redirections. A technical explanation would be appreciated, if anyone happens to know :-)
