Subject: Spaces in Filename, Can't Get Exclude Link Working

There's a file with lots punctuation and spaces in the filename that keeps
WHTTrack trying to download it again and again. Exclude Link works great with
files with no spaces and punctuation marks. Here it is (it doesn't look like a
filename, I know):

All you need is a small empty plastic water bottle. Break an egg on a plate,
then squeeze the bottle lightly and bring it to touch the egg yolk. Let go,
and watch the yolk slide into the bottle! Check out a video of this method in
action.html

Exclude Link has always worked for me.  But for this file it doesn't work - I
think because of the spaces. I tried this string with no success:

-*/All%20you%20need%20is%20a%20small%20empty%20plastic%20water%20bottle.%20Break%20an%20egg%20on%20a%20plate%2C%20then%20squeeze%20the%20bottle%20lightly%20and%20bring%20it%20to%20touch%20the%20egg%20yolk.%20Let%20go%2C%20and%20watch%20the%20yolk%20slide%20into%20the%20bottle%21%20Check%20out%20a%20video%20of%20this%20method%20in%20action.html

I also tried %2E for the periods after "bottle" and "yolk" and it didn't work
either.

Have you faced this problem?  If so, how did you solve it?
