Hi :) %25 is the code for a % symbol so the 'wrong' link is not really wrong after all. It's just a bit odd and unnecessary. In the 'wrong' link replace all the %25s with % so that %2520 becomes %20 and then the apparently 'wrong' link looks right. It's a good reason for avoiding spaces and non-standard characters in Urls. CamelCase is much less prone to these sorts of problems.
Seems a few other organisations are having trouble with %25 replacing % http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/technicalqueries/thread/6f20c6a9-0ed9-4e96-a0f7-cc1abbdf58a8 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1648880?start=0&tstart=0 https://github.com/pipwerks/PDFObject/issues/23 http://drupal.org/node/1335942 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3549747/apache-25-in-url-400-bad-request Welcome back chap!
