Try this:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#allowencodedslashes

Encoded slashes are not allowed by default because they can be used to
trick some scripts into disclosing protected content.  (Although that
seems like a pretty weak explanation to me.  Lot's of other characters
cause potential problems.)
