Invalid characters when using aspnet_setreg

We are having some problems with invalid characters in passwords when
using aspnet_setreg. Aspnet_setreg seems to generate the registry
keys successfully, but then the asp.net application using the
username/password encrypted with aspnet_setreg won't start properly
because of a problem with the password.

For information, we have a utility that generates strong passwords for
us. The passwords could contain most of the special characters. If
we can find out which characters aren't allowed, then we can get them
removed from the list of allowable characters to be generated by the
utility.

Is there a list anywhere of the characters that aren't allowed in
passwords that are encrypted with aspnet_setreg?

Thanks,
Rich
