Problem authenticating if password contains a @

Are you using the iControl library for Java? Is so, why not use the builtin setUsername, setPassword methods? Munging the username/password in the URL's is not very secure and something that has been purged out of browsers and connection libraries over the last few years. Since you didn't include the rest of your code, I'm not sure how you are actually making the iControl calls. Regardless, I recommend using the builtin methods in the various toolkits out there for packing up the client credentials.
