Cedric,
This is nothing to worry about. It's just making a very long URL shorter so
that it will not take up as much space in the logs.
For example:
Someone is clicking on a link on a site hosted at your server that comes
from a CGI program, and the link is very long, such as
http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/forum.cgi?forum_name=general&thread_id=13&m
essage=129574&user_id=some_username

What Webalizer will do is cut this down to something like:
http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/forum.cgi

There is nothing bad going on, Webalizer is just informing you that it
performed that action (cut down the URL).
If you look through the Webalizer documentation you'll find a way to make it
stop sending you these notices.
