Issue with encrypted string created with Crypt_CBC and urls and mod_rewrite

[Dan Rossi <php@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi there im having issue decoding an encoded string created with a pear  
package Crypt_CBC which i am encoding a uri into the string and sending  
to a rewrite url. The query string is not returning the encoded part of  
the url properly for some reason and not decoding properly.

I have already sent this to the pear list, but maybe someone here has  
experienced issues with encoded strings and mod_rewrite not relocating  
with a url encoded string ?

The encoded string without mod_rewrite rules is

RandomIVQ%83%80%E6%0F%E7%E4%7CdY%E7%BA%9B%14%5B%60%98%A1%1D%04%94L_%16%E 
4%19%EF%F1%FE%5C%D6%CE%09%C8DI%A7%1F%04%25%A8%7B%FA%19%B51%1D%7C%0D%04%1

1EA%07%25%F5%BB%22%EA%B7%B8%82%F0WZ%40

With rewritten urls its from viewing source.

The rewrite rule is

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^feeds/(.*) refer.php?$1 [L]

Any ideas why its not urlencoding the urlencoded string in the rewrite  
url ?

I may have to use the request_uri instead of sending it as a query  
string if this is a flaw in mod_rewrite ?? I think however if i use the  
request_uri things could break a little.

Let me know.
