Hi !
I'm trying to access a webpage with a Basic Authentication, automatically,
without the user intervention.
I can't use the following url to access the protected webpage:
username:password@website
because an IE patch (http://windowsxp.mvps.org/IEFAQ.htm#urlpassword
I tried to do it with Headers too:
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------- 
AnsiString userPass = "npyNzljYng6eWF6MjEzNA==" ;  //username:password
(base64)
TVariant URL = {"www.webpage.com"};
TVariant Headers = {"Authorization: Basic "+ userPass + "\r\n"};
CppWebBrowser1->Navigate2(&URL, TNoParam(), TNoParam(),
TNoParam(),&Headers);
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------- 
it works, but if the webpage has some image, then the Authentication popup
is shown.
I was searching and I saw this is a common problem, and no one posted a
solution.
Any ideas?
I'm trying to access the setup page from my router, so I can reset it
programatically.

thanks !
enrique.
