Hello Jose,
the solution is that simple:
there exists a domain called embratel.com, here ist the nslookup output: > embratel.com Server: lilly.ping.de Address: 193.100.14.2
Non-authoritative answer: embratel.com nameserver = UPB.BYU.EDU embratel.com nameserver = ACS1.BYU.EDU
Authoritative answers can be found from: embratel.com nameserver = UPB.BYU.EDU embratel.com nameserver = ACS1.BYU.EDU UPB.BYU.EDU internet address = 128.187.20.51 ACS1.BYU.EDU internet address = 128.187.20.29 - but there is no domain embratell.com. The lookup for www.embratel.com takes so much longer cause the resolver tries to query the authorative servers i guess.
