RichTextBox - HtmlFormatProvider and Wikipedia throws Exception

[David MacKenzie]

I am trying to load a WikiPedia page into the RadRichTextEditor.  The exception is
'InvalidCastException' or 'Specificed cast is not valid'.

Most every web page works fine.  The code is simple.

private void onWebPageReceived(byte[] bytes)

{

    var provider = new HtmlFormatProvider();

    RadDocument doc = provider.Import(bytes);

}

I have a simple webservice on the server that fetches the webpage and returns it as a byte array.

public static byte[] GetBytes(string url)
{
    WebClient wc = new WebClient();
    byte[] result = wc.DownloadData(url);
    return result;
}

Ideas?
