Torrents don't work if filenames have certain characters

I'm using the CVS version of ktorrent from 12-23-05 on linux.

If a torrent consists of files or directories that contain one or more # characters, ktorrent fails to create the temporary file or directory correctly, do symlyinking, or whatever else it does when messing with the temporary files. Ktorrent later complains that some file in the torrent doesn't exist (whether it's the file that contains #'s itself, or a file with a parent directory that has #'s) when it attempts to begin downloading.

Maybe there are other characters that cause problems too that should be tested?
