Those are two different urls, so I would expect them to show different results. If the content is the same for both versions of the url, then you have a duplicate issue that you should fix. There is a significant section dedicated to duplicate issues in the Hot Topics area [webmasterworld.com], which is always pinned to the top of this forum's index page.
