asp.net mvc routing problem when passed parameter contains dot

Question

Hi, I have very basic routing:

routes.MapRoute( "Default",
"{controller}/{action}/{id}",parameters new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" } );
The problem is that it works perfectly in all simple cases, like "www.xxx.yy/pages/filter/test". As soon as I add dot "." to {id} part it fails, returning 'The resource cannot be found.' It happens for "www.xxx.yy/pages/filter/test."

Any suggestions?
