Package: bidwatcher
Version: 1.3.16-1
Severity: normal

Hello,


The 'open browser on auction' fails for Mozilla and Firefox because of 
special characters present in the URL/command

e.g. for Mozilla the following will be fed to the program:
---
-remote 
openURL(http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5744748642,new-window)
 
---

This fails because of the special characters '(', ')' and '&'. The 
entire openURL bit should be enclosed in '' or "" for it to work.
