Remove special characters from URL

Whenever I try to store a URL in a collection that looks like the one below it changes the & to ¶ . Does anyone know how to stop this from taking place.
example: :: TheApp ::

Change: www.theapp.com/¶target=testPage¶name=User_name

How can I stop this from happening? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Jason
