Wayback Machine Search ?

Sometimes I need to use the Wayback Machine, and the site returns an error "Not Found-wbcgi", this is because the %2F, %3A etc. (you know spaces, special characters) the site doesn't recognize them. It works fine if I do it manually with copy & paste.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

I think you can use the macro language statement "urldecode()" to make the %xx values return to the special character. If I have got this backward and the site prefers %xx to the special character then the statement "urlencode()" will work. See the macro language here. http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/wiki/MacroLanguage2#urldecode()

try this one:
http://kmext.sourceforge.net/macros/servers.7z
you can use it to open a link or page with googlecache, coral cdn or waybackmachine for archives
