>Description:
FTP does not decode %XX escapes occuring within
username or password portions of ftp: URLs as specified
in RFC 1738.  These escapes are necessary if the username or
password contains a :, @, or / character.

Example: to represent a password of 'p@ssword', you must write
ftp://user:p%40ssword@host.domain.com/

FYI, fetch and ncftpget both handle this correctly.
