That is also why the 'handshake' with Internet Explorer does not
send the password over the line.  If I'm not mistaken it starts with
some bytes sent from the server to the browser.  The browser appends
the password and calculates a hash from the total and then only
that hash is sent to the server.
This is only applicable to Internet Explorer and does not work with
Netscape.  Also it is not applicable when you use basic authentication
with that module
