Because, in order to be able to read characters which have a special
meaning for LaTeX and might be used in URLs (#, &, and ~ come to
mind), LaTeX has to change the catcode (the category) of the
characters *before* reading them. It is possible in general, but does
not work in text which moves a lot around (e.g. the heading of a
section goes on the page, in the headers and in the TOC, and is read
in different contexts in these places).
I've read that the package fancyvrb, available from ctan at
macros/latex/contrib/supported/fancyvrb/ can fix this problem, but I
have never tried it.
