RE: Links ending with a )
instead of using ( or ) literally, you should encode them... This because ( and ) are actually reserved characters.

http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/Angel_%28TV_Series%29

( => %28
) => %29

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding

This encoding can be done in JScript with the escape() function.

In fact, encoding should always be done when you send URLs which you don't know what they'll be, in any program.
