Subject: open of web page fails

here is the URL (spans 2 lines) and it fails with a bad uri message

http://quote.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=MS+^DJI+^GSPC+^IXIC+IWB+IWM+IWV+TMW+^VIX+^TV.N+&f=d1t1sl1c1&e=csv

The message I get is URI::InvalidURIError: bad URI(is not URI?):

The same URI in a web page returns quote.csv, as expected

Any ideas? I am stumped

thanks in advance!

Joe
