App fails if password contains (unescaped) special characters

[yongjunj]

If password contains (unescaped) special characters, the app fails - the index page won't load:

URIError: URI malformed
   at decodeURIComponent (native)
   at Url.parse (url.js:185:19)
   at Object.urlParse [as parse] (url.js:101:5)
   at Request.init (/app/node_modules/request/request.js:248:20)
   at new Request (/app/node_modules/request/request.js:139:8)
   at request (/app/node_modules/request/index.js:55:10)
   at /app/app.js:14:3
   at Layer.handle [as handle_request] (/app/node_modules/express/lib/router/layer.js:95:5)
   at next (/app/node_modules/express/lib/router/route.js:131:13)
   at Route.dispatch (/app/node_modules/express/lib/router/route.js:112:3)

It should be easy to fix. I'll submit a fix when I get some free time.
