> While spidering our intranet, I found that IIS may include 
> illegal characters in URLs -- specifically, characters with 
> the high bit set to produce non-English letters. In 
> addition, both Firefox and IE will accept URLs with high-
> bit characters, but Java won't.
> While this may not be Nutch's (or Java's) fault, it would 
> help if high-bit characters (and other illegal characters) 
> in URLs could be escaped (using percent-hex notation) 
> as part of the URL fix-up process, probably right after 
> the hostname lower-case conversion.
> Example document name in Portuguese(with high-bit 
> characters) taken from a longer URL:
> Nota%20tecnica%20-%20Alteração%20de%
> 20escopo.doc
> and with percent-escaped characters:
> Nota%20tecnica%20-%20Altera%e7%e3o%20de%
> 20escopo.doc
