Does not accept password with special characters #92

I am using a coursera password with the character '^' and coursera-dl keeps showing Exception: Invalid username and password. Logging in via the website directly works fine.

Workaround: change password to alphanumerical string without special characters.

Python: 2.7.2 OS: Windows 7 64bit
