Description leandro ribeiro 2010-03-07 15:56:24 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

If I have a password in my Google account with + and ! chars (which I do), PicasaWeb Export won't login, giving me an "Unknown Error". If I change my Google account to a password containing only letters and numbers, it works.

Facebook export works fine with the same chars.

Steps to reproduce:
1 - change your Google account password to something like "!+123";
2 - use PicasaWeb Export to upload some photos;
3 - change the password back to 123;
4 - repeat step 2.
