This is incredibly confusing - if I change the switch statement to look like the below - going to this URI with a capital C works....however, now going to this uri with a lowercase c breaks. It used to be the other way around. Something is funky as far as the case.

"c=*" {
               log local0. "Query string of URI [HTTP::uri] is [URI::query [HTTP::uri]]"
               HTTP::redirect "http://newforum.newdomain.com/default.aspx?g=forum&c=[URI::query [HTTP::uri] C]"
               return
            }

It seems like the server would have to be doing the unexpected redirection. I see no other way you'd get redirected to http://newforum.newdomain.com/default.aspx?g=info&i=4 as that's not one of the targets from your iRule. The application sounds like it's behaving unexpectedly (or not) based on the query string. Just out of curiosity, can you post your iRule that works with if{} statements?
