I know these pages can be picked up by search engines, just curious to know if having a? in URLs can have a negative effect. ie:

[#*$!xx.#*$!...]

Does this type of URL (sometimes or always) prevent PR from being passed down to this level of page? Any other problems to consider?

If you only have a few parameters and the URL is not very long - you should be ok. Session IDs are alwatys bad. Bad! But from what I see in your URL you should be ok.

Try rewrite anyways. You'd benefit from it. Users will be happy. Search engines will be happy too.
