1. Your browser clearly got a cookie more. As is seen in your LiveHTTPHeaders
log, you already had that cookie when you started your capture. You should
bettter clear all cookies first and then retry, as it is much likely that it
needs to do something initial to get that first cookie
2. The Accept-Encoding header is added with curl too if you use --compressed.
