Using AppleScripts remote with @ part of password login

I have an @ for part of the password for "eppc://" & user_name & ":" & pass_word & "@" & localHost. How do I get around people that use the @ symbol to log into an Apple Script?

The standard approach for URLs is to use percent encoding to escape delimiters but, honestly, I’ve no idea whether that’ll work in this context.
