POST Problem

I'm experiencing a problem with LWP while posting a form. I have a form that
gets posted to this secure URL using the POST method:

https://demo.aego.net:443/%ae18ad575d989b046cbb772e11d4

Posting the form using Internet Explorer works perfectly fine. Using my
application always produces a 500 Server error for the response. I examined
my request header and the first part looks like this:

POST https://demo.aego.net/%AE18ad575d989b046cbb772e11d4

Notice that the %ae was changed to a %AE. I believe this is causing the
problem. I tried to re-designate the URL via:

$request->uri("https://demo.aego.net:443/%ae18ad575d989b046cbb772e11d4");

But it made no difference. Is there anyway I can make LWP leave the URL the
way it is?

Thanks,
Bernie
