In these cases I always try to take the time send feedback to the editors 
and/or web masters and ask the journal publisher to fix the problem, e.g. cite 
keys with blanks in them and other syntax errors as they are so widespread in 
download citation services offering the alleged BibTeX format. ;-)   Not only 
will others profit from this, but also yourself when you visit the journal the 
next time.
