Get content-length from a URL which redirects to itself

I want to get content-length from a URL that it sends me this header:

HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Date: Sun, 01 Jan 2012 09:34:44 GMT Server: Apache Location: https://www.sugarsync.com, www.sugarsync.com/pf/D6304231_0192919_76577 Keep-Alive: timeout=300, max=9793 Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

The problem is that the original URL is the same new URL that in this header is sent! In other words: I get the headers from URL: https://www.sugarsync.com/pf/D6304231_0192919_76577 and in headers that I get, it redirects to the same page.

I don't seem to have that problem with the URL you provided:

C:\Users\rleahy>openssl s_client -quiet -connect sugarsync.com:443
Loading 'screen' into random state - done

verify return:0

Are you sure you're not connecting with HTTP rather than HTTPS? Connecting with HTTP does indeed give a 301 (asking you -- in effect -- to connect using HTTPS).
