Direct Link Problem

I always knew the Org was picky when it comes to direct links, but what the heck, gonna give it a try if there's a workaround for this.

The direct link I am trying to add to my latest video is:
http://www.kolumbus.fi/perho/evangelion ... t_good.avi
For some reason I receive " ERROR: Link is not valid: 404 - Not Found" when trying to add the link at Step 4. Now as you can try the link is valid but I suspect that either party is not co-operating with the other one. Could be on my side, but are there then any fixes or ways to make this work? I remember vaguely making this possible a long time ago on a previous video of mine, but that was over a year ago.

Thanks in advance anyway.

I think the apostrophe in the link can cause trouble 'cause it's a reserved character for URI's. Maybe you must replace it in the vid profile with it's hex representation %27

I tried to simply remove the apostrophe and the link has now been accepted. Thanks for the help, Keeper.
