I have a site that uses basic authentication (.htacess stuff)

I want to write a perl script that automatically logs a user in
without the popup stuff

I was going to do print location
http://user/secretstuff/

But MSFT took that away from us 2 months ago. ARGH.

Any clues?

Are we supposed to know what MSFT is?
