.Net4 don't support System.Web and as result it can't be use Httputility.urldecode!!

So what is urldecode jop? and how can I change that to something, which is support by .Net4?

HttpUtility is wild goose chase for c# users since it's not already there (referenced)
2 alternatives :

  string a =  System.Uri.EscapeUriString("https://some.url.goes.here"); // for path
  string b = System.Uri.EscapeDataString("parameter1=1&parameter2=something"); // for params
