Firefox translating paranthesis to %28 and %29
When I copy/paste a link from firefox with () in them they translate to %28 and %29. This does not happen if i use IE.

Hi Crazytownclown, This is to be expected. Does the url still work?
It should be to fix what broke for other websites that assume this behavior: network.standard-url.encode-query-utf8 - it was later removed.

In case you copy the URL from the location/address bar, you can type an extra character in front of the url and copy the remainder to the clipboard.
That way the URL doesn't get the encodeURI treatment.
You may want to have the full URL visible.
