Yes I agree. Moving forward URLs are created the leave out the non-standard characters, I was asking anyone knows a way or why google adsense has trouble loading with non-standard characters in the URL?

Is this a known issue?

Is there a trick to get adsense to load quickly on a url such as: ....Handbags_%96_Tips_on_Finding_Great_Handbags

I tried adding:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />

But this did not help.
