in reply to Access to protected Sites

I am not completly sure of me but I think that login on website (server protection) can be easely bypass. You just have to add login and pass on the URL.
ex: http://mylogin:mypass@www.domain.com
I will be happy if someone confirm my post.

    That method will only work with certain types of .htaccess restriction. If plain forms are used (with CGIs), the data is send in different ways...
    Like noted before, there are loads of tutorials on using LWP to log into CGI-based forms.
