Dynamic DNS updater does not allow for @ symbol in the password for the update service.

Run into this problem when using a generated password for my DNS-O-Matic account. Changing the password to one generated without symbols fixed the problem.

"/etc/inc/dyndns.class" should be fixed to allow for all characters in the username and password field for all Dynamic DNS cases.

Here is a fix to allow the (at) symbol in the password and username field for dnsomatic:
