Using "&" in matrix fields

Julian Mancera
I,m trying to use matrix datatype to store a string that contains "&" character like this:
http://category-xml.php?CategoryID=3121&Filter=1000036-3808734_
After I published the object, all characters after "&" are automatically clean, leaving the field like this:
http://category-xml.php?CategoryID=3121
Anybody worked out this problem? Why does it happen?
Thanks for your help
