    Running the string through a URL decoder would reveal the token however for references the following can be used to convert the string:

     

    • $ (Dollar Sign) becomes %24
    • & (Ampersand) becomes %26
    • + (Plus) becomes %2B
    • , (Comma) becomes %2C
    • : (Colon) becomes %3A
    • ; (Semi-Colon) becomes %3B
    • = (Equals) becomes %3D
    • ? (Question Mark) becomes %3F
    • @ (Commercial A / At) becomes %40
    • / (Forward Slash) becomes %2F

    You can see the full map of character encoding at http://www.degraeve.com/reference/urlencoding.php 

    I hope this helps,
