I'm trying to use fetch to download a file with a name like this:

Code:
http://www.website.com/files/BigZip (Part 1).zip


I've downloaded files that have whitespaces in the filename, and replacing them with %20 has always worked. However, with parentheses, when I try to replace ( with %28 and ) with %29, I get "Not Found."

Example:
Code:
http://www.website.com/files/BigZip%20%28Part%201%29.zip


Using the escape character \ doesn't work either (I didn't think it would, but tried it anyway).

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I don't remember the last time I used fetch, but putting the location in "quote" doesn't work?
