Problem with Url.Content in ASP.NET MVC on Default Route

Question

If I use the following line in my default view /Home/Index

<script language="javascript" src="<%=Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-1.3.2.js")%>" type="text/javascript" ></script>

If I surf to this location using the following url http://127.0.0.1:9999/Home/Index the page gets rendered correctly

<script language="javascript" src="/Scripts/jquery-1.3.2.js" type="text/javascript" ></script>

If I use the following url http://127.0.0.1:9999/ (default wired to Home/Index) the page renders this:

<script language="javascript" src="//Scripts/jquery-1.3.2.js" type="text/javascript" ></script>

Does anyone has any idea how to solve this issue?

EDIT:

FYI: I'm using ASP.NET mvc 2 RC And this is my route configuration:

routes.MapRoute(
 "Default",                                              // Route name
 "{controller}/{action}/{id}",                           // URL with parameters
 new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" }  // Parameter defaults
);

If you use IIS6 or WinXP Cassini you should register one more route:

if (Environment.OSVersion.Version.Major < 6) // IIS6 and WinXP Cassini
        {
            routes.MapRoute(
                "Root",
                "",
                new
                    {
                        controller = "Home",
                        action = "Index",
                        id = UrlParameter.Optional
                    }
                );
        }
