When I click "Test Active Port" in deluge it takes me to file:///home/askar/%22http://
www.deluge-torrent.org/test-port.php?port=6881%22
Same thing when I use the torrentsearchplugin..deluge seems too add "file:///home/askar/%22" in the beginning and "%22" in the end...why?

Same problems here in Feisty 7.04....it appends my home directory to any URL accessed from within Deluge as these guys are all mentioning.
It also happens if you click on the deluge web link within the HELP > ABOUT menu!
Not a real pain the butt, but still would be nice if it worked.
This problem is the main reason I don't use the search plugin.

Please see this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... +bug/83974
The problem appears to be with quotes around %s and it appears to be a python bug.. I'll look into what I can do in Deluge to hack around this, but in the meantime you may wish to alter your default browser to remove the "%s" and just use %s. You can do this in the Preferred Applications program and can check it with the following:
$ gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command

Wicked! Thanks. Solved.
Anyone else needs to know how then go to SYSTEM > PREFERENCES > PREFERRED APPLICATIONS
...then for your browser (1st box I think) remove the quotes around "%s" so it is simply %s.
