Actually, %5C is a \ character, % is %25 Why it is adding a character that is used in local address strings is baffling and I think a clue as to what is going on. Is it possible it is mashing a local file address into a web address? BTW, IMHO using spaces in folder and/or file names is bad practice and should be avoided.
