(Question) Problem user.xml with complex password with new API

[tata01]

Hello,

Since the new API, the snipe (and other bot) can't read my "user.xml".
I discover my password is maybe too complexe for it (i have a lot of special caracters in my password).
When i try to put a normal password, all is OK.

When it can't read the "user.xml", i was able to put the password on the windows, but with the autobat, it doesn't ask me my username and password.

How can i do for the user.xml can read my password?

My password have this form: "&alwaysBeBe4!@"

For summary:

&alwaysBeBe4!@ => user.xml doesn't work
zaeazfzefze => user.xml work great.

Ok the problem is the caracter "&" in the beginnin of the password.
Something to know for the API accept this caracter?
