I have the following code that loads a link into HttpWebRequest:

string actualLinkString = nextLink.First();
Uri actualLinkUri = new System.Uri(actualLinkString);
HttpWebRequest l_oRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(actualLinkUri);

The URL in question is 

http://moodle.tau.ac.il/pluginfile.php/409194/mod_resource/content/2/0571.4118.01-E01-26-2-13_OptLink%20%20Project%20at%20We%20Say%20So%20Engineering%20Incpdf.

This is a valid URL, including the dot at the end

After the URI is loaded, this is the l_oRequest.AbsoluteURI field:

http://moodle.tau.ac.il/pluginfile.php/409194/mod_resource/content/2/0571.4118.01-E01-26-2-13_OptLink%20%20Project%20at%20We%20Say%20So%20Engineering%20Incpdf

Notice that the dot at the end has been omitted, meaning this URI returns a 404...

What could have caused this?
