Ah-hah! Someone, somewhere, is using "%" as an escape character!

That's part of the URL spec. %XX is used to encode a character that wouldn't be legal otherwise in that context, where XX is the hex for the ascii value of that character. Sorry.. I don't remember that ascii value for "%" offhand, but there are a lot of utilities for encoding/decoding.
