Issue with ":" in a password?

Everyone:
I'm automating a sftp upload to a 3rd party vendor site. They provided the username & password. The password has the ":" character in it. The script accepts the username then I get:
Authentication with pre-entered password.
Access denied.
I know the password is valid because I'll copy and paste it into the winscp.exe and it will work with no issues.
Is there an issue with using the ":" character in the script such as:
open sftp://company:password:issue@qqqp.com
Sincerely,
Dale
