I'm writing a manual, book class, using hyperref package which, when I generate the PDF (using pdflatex), gives me inline output that looks like (for example)

"... you can get xxx at the AVS website www.avs.com and yyy at the OpenDX website www.opendx.org...."

To create those website labels and URLs I used "Insert URL" of course. My problem is, the team I'm preparing this manual for wants parentheses around the URLs. If I use Insert URL dialog box to create those references, and put either ( ) or < > -type parentheses around the URLs, they no longer work when clicked on in the PDF. Is there something I can add to hyperref that will give me parentheses around all the URLs in my document? Or is there another solution, short of removing hyperref (since without it I can have the parens, but the links won't be clickable).

Thanks for any help. I'm using 1.4.3 on Mac OS X but sharing document with Linux users as well.
