How do I build a connection string which includes a passsword having a "=" in it? (I'm connecting to MySql 5.1)

For example, let's say the password is "Ge5f8z=6", what would the connection string look like?

I tried:

Server=DBSERV;Database=mydb;UID=myuser;PWD="Ge5f8z=6";

and

Server=DBSERV;Database=mydb;UID=myuser;PWD=Ge5f8z=6;"

Both don't work.
