You could also put quotes around it like "cd folder with space", also, 
if you hit tab while cd(ing) to finish the name, it will put back 
slashes in place of the spaces. The quote thing is necessary sometimes 
if your scp(ing) with spaces. I don't know the exact trigger to the 
problem, can't remember but the quotes allow spaces in more functions 
than the back slashes.
