+Summary: Incorrect HtmlDecode result
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
+are doing.
+
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+HttpUtility.HtmlDecode does not properly decode an HTML encoded string.
+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Put the following code in test.cs
+
+using System;
+using System.Web;
+
+namespace Test
+{
+        public class HtmlDecodeTest
+        {
+                public static void Main(string[] args)
+                {
+                        string x = "<html>& hello+= world!";
+                        string y = HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(x);
+                        string z = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(y);
+
+                        Console.WriteLine("input: " + x);
+                        Console.WriteLine("encoded: " + y);
+                        Console.WriteLine("decoded: " + z);
+                }
+        }
+}
+
+2. Compile with: 
+gmcs -r:System -r:System.Web -out:test.exe test.cs
+
+3. Run mono test.exe.  This outputs the following:
+
+input: <html>& hello+= world!
+encoded: &lt;html&gt;&amp; hello+= world!
+decoded: <html>& hello+= world!0
+
+** Notice the zero at the end of the last string, this is the error.
+
+Actual Results:
+
+The output shown in step 3 above.
+
+
+Expected Results:
+
+A string that is first encoded, and that result is then decoded should
+result in the original string.
+
+
+How often does this happen? 
+
+Always
+
+
