    Odd URL behavior - hangs app pool

    I noticed some odd URLs in my google analytics. Our site has a structure like this:

    Home
    -Folder 1
    --SubFolder 1
    -Folder 2 ...

    Since the top level dir is hidden, google stats has urls like this: www.domain/folder-1, but I also noticed a bunch of stats for pages which don't exist, always ending in /home (www.domain/folder-1/home).

    The url for www.domain/folder-1/home simple renders the home page and seems to be explained by this thread:

    http://our.umbraco.org/forum/ourumb-dev-forum/bugs/7333-Child-page-with-the-same-name-as-homepage-node-routes-to-homepage

    HOWEVER, www.domain/folder-1/folder-2/home seems to create some kind of loop which hangs the app-pool.

    My two concerns are, where are these analytic results coming from (I cannot find any pages on the site with links that end in home, and several examples in the analytics have as many results for "/folder-1/home" as just "/folder-1". The other pretty big concern is the killer loop.

    I don't have any custom url rewriting in place. I do have a few "roots" in my umbraco install - for example "home" with a domain set to  www.domain.com and "sub" with a domain set to sub.domain.com

    I'm currently at umb v4.0.3.

    Thanks! Tom

    I found a setting in Google Analytics which explains why the "/home" urls appear in the stats, so concern 1 is answered. Has anyone else experiened hanging when a url contains the root folder name and is more than 2 levels deep, i.e. http://www.domain.com/folder1/folder2/home ?
