The security page allows you to enter usernames and passwords for secure websites and any proxy servers or firewalls which might need authentication.
If authentication fails, the option is available to be prompted for a username and password to access the proxy or website.
Internet Authorisation
Takes a username and optional password to use for authentication on secure websites. First enter the username, and then click on the "Set Internet Password" button to enter a password. If a previously entered password exists, the button text will read "Set New Internet Password".
Proxy Authorisation
Takes a username and optional password to use for authentication on proxy servers/firewalls. First enter the username, and then click on the "Set Proxy Password" button to enter a password. If a previously entered password exists, the button text will read "Set New Proxy Password".
Security Note
The passwords will be stored in the registry for future sessions in an
encrypted form. However, the encryption is only simple and should not be
considered secure. If your password is sensitive, you should either clear
the username field before exiting WebReaper (which prevents the password
from being stored in the registry) or stick to using the username &
password prompt dialog which will be displayed during downloads (and
does not store the password).
The author cannot be held responsible for any breach of
security caused as a direct or indirect result of using WebReaper.
