Urls messy - extra characters not expected?

After peforming a basic redirect with two query string parameters I load the
page successfully...however the url does not look pretty...can anyone tell
me why these percentage signs and extra symbols are showing up:

http://69.2.200.70/dev/1/doc3.asp?vI...3%2Easp&bhqs=1

Is this related to UNENCODE or something along these lines...? I know
percentage symbols traditionally stand for 'spaces' but this seems
different....

Thanks

I'm not sure that you set up your redirect correctly - its appended the URLS to the original URL
You have 4 "http://" in that URL - post some code so we can take a look at it.

if you are passing just a few params via the URL its set up like

response.redirect ("pg2redirect.asp?key1=" & value1 & "&key2=" & value2) - something like that

it looks like you are redirecting a variable you've set to capture the referring URL as part of the URL itself.
