Unfortunately, this does not work, a typical realaudio stream looks like
this:

http://broadcast9.activate.net/SmpDsBhgRlb4bc07bd-43d3-11d2-fda3-75012f1f2b26

I think there is no way to match these URLs on regex. IMHO the only way
reliably distinguishing the content of a server reply is examining the
Content-Type-header. I tried your delay hack patch with 1.1 and it didn't
work for me.
