You are right, the bulges are filters. Some applications will work without them but yours must be in a noisy electrical environment. The 25' length makes it even more prone to noise and it's probably not a sheilded cable either. I'm guessing that when you combine the two cables the filters (and sheilding) on the 3' cable is what is allowing all 28' to work but I'm puzzled as to why when you switch back to the long cable by itself it works. Perhaps the noise is only a problem on the initialization. If I'm understanding your question ["Are there different VGA Plugs?"], they are all the same D-type connector. Some are made of plastic and some of metal and depending on the application, some of the pins are crossed (ie. not pin-for-pin compatible).
