| Hello all,
I have created a secure folder on my web server and created a user and
password that can access it. So when you navigate to a page/file within
this folder the login box appears. Here's my question:
From a link on a form (outside the secure folder), can you send the user
name and password using code to access a page/file in the secure folder,
thus suppressing the login box?
I'm using ASP.NET (.NET Framework 2.0)
TIA
Tim

No, you cannot.

| Does anyone have any idea the method that should be used to secure from
un-authorised downloads of files?
I do have ASP.NET application and I am not using Authentication
(authentication mode="None"). Would this be the only method if I did use
Forms Authentication?
