Question Notification Email: Corruption of Web Addresses

In my version of Kunena (1.6.3 - see below), I found that the following web addresses get corrupted in the email version of posts.
www.joomlahackers.net/joomla-1.6-tutoria...es-in-joomla-16.html
forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=199&t=251273

The first one corrupts at the "/n" and then second at the "&".

This problem with the first seems to be in the purify() function in /components/com_kunena/lib/kunena.smile.class.php at line 121:
Code:
$text = preg_replace ( '/&/', ' ', $text );
I haven't tracked down the second one yet but it's sure to be in the same function.

The "&" problem comes from /administrator/components/com_kunena/libraries/html/parser.php stripBBCode() line 54
Code:
$txt = self::escape ( $txt );
Also causes '<' to be converted to '&lt;' and ">' to '&gt;'.
