getting pages with curl

[Cleverbum@hotmail.com]

I've been using a really basic implementation of cURL to get some
remote pages I use to generate some of my pages, I was wondering if it
would be possible to get some that were in a password protected members
area too.
The password entry box is one of the ones that pops up as a dialogue
box in windows as opposed to entering it on a page.
Let me know if you have any more questions, I know that was a
particularly poor description.

HTTP authentication headers can be sent (what else do you think is
preventing the pop-up on subsequent page-changes in the protected area?)

My advise for cURL remains the same as always:
- MSIE user: install Fiddler, check headers, recreate with cURL, violá.
- Mozilla: install LiveHTTPHeaders , check headers, recreate with cURL,
violá.

I'm a fan of Opera, but for this particular use I sadly have not found the
tools.
