Fetching HEAD 404, Fetching BODY 200

I wrote a script to check, if some websites are OK.
It's done via fetching HEAD from HTTP.

But I found website, where CURL HEAD is returning 404 status code,
but if I try to fetch HEAD with BODY, status code is 200.
Also, wget is working fine, just try these two commands on this website:

curl -I http://www.youtube.com/ESETSK
wget -S http://www.youtube.com/ESETSK

I was using also user-agent option, but it was no difference.

Thank you for help,

Viktor
