Is this at all similar to my e-mail problem (subject - User Names),
where the user name included the @ symbol?  Translating the solution
would result in:

    read [
         scheme: 'http
         user: "my\name"
         pass: "password"
         host: "www.webpage.com"
    ]

Understanding, as Holger said, some characters should not be in the url,
this may not work, you can at least try :-)
