All 4 look like correct returns to me.  The "%2c" is a URL
escape.  Use of "special" characters in URLs is somewhat limited.
See RFC 3986.

Use http://theotp1.physik.uni-ulm.de/~ste/tmp/fid%252c67731 to
retrieve "%2c".  And, just for safety, in case "%" is a special
character in your command line (using wget), place the entire url in
quotes.
