Yup, I see the same thing here.  But I would hazard that it's IE doing it, not Zendto, thus not a bug in Zendto.  The solution would be to complain to Microsoft, and/or right click on the downloaded file and select "Rename" from the pop-up menu.  Or live with it.  It's not really breaking anything...

Subject: [ZendTo] IE problem: filenames containing spaces

Hi,

I've discovered a problem with IE clients picking up dropped-off files when the filenames contains spaces.

IE will save these files and replace any space characters with a + sign. 
I've seen this with both IE8 and IE10 on Win7 64.

Every other browser I've tested (Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera) behave as expected and preserve the filename's spaces.

Is this a known issue, and is there a solution?

We're running a rather old ZendTo at the moment: 4.10-4.
