Bug Description

Hi
If I try to open a file with square bracket name (ie [blabla].rar), preview doesn't work. I tried
with .rar (ark preview) and .avi (kaffeine preview) files. Ark ask me what kind of format it should
use, kaffeine doesn't find right plugin. After renaming files without square brackets, everything is
ok

thanks
