Ampersands in feed URLs break feed fetching

Reported by Viper007Bond | March 6th, 2009 @ 11:54 AM

I'm using some Yahoo Pipes powered feeds on my site to tweak the feeds first. The URLs are like this:

http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pip...?id=ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ&render=rss

Doing "Fetch Feed" did nothing, nor did the cron. However replacing that URL with a TinyURL to that URL made it work just fine.
