How To Parse XML With Invalid Characters in Node Name?

[beige]

So I'm trying to parse some XML, the creation of which is not under my control. The trouble is, they've somehow got nodes that look like this:\[code\]<ID_INTERNAL_FEAT_FOCUSED_EXPERTISE_(MORNINGSTAR) /><ID_INTERNAL_FEAT_FOCUSED_EXPERTISE_(QUARTERSTAFF) /><ID_INTERNAL_FEAT_FOCUSED_EXPERTISE_(SCYTHE) /><ID_INTERNAL_FEAT_FOCUSED_EXPERTISE_(TRATNYR) /><ID_INTERNAL_FEAT_FOCUSED_EXPERTISE_(TRIPLE-HEADED_FLAIL) /><ID_INTERNAL_FEAT_FOCUSED_EXPERTISE_(WARAXE) />\[/code\]Visual Studio and .NET both feel that the '(' and ')' characters, as used above, are totally invalid. Unfortunately, I need to process these files! Is there any way to get the Xml Reader classes to not freak out at seeing these characters, or dynamically escape them or something? I could do some sort of pre-processing on the whole file, but I DO want the '(' and ')' characters if they appear inside the node in some valid way, so I don't want to just remove them all...
