I have not been able to replicate this issue here, but I am using an 
older version of Windows.

Is there anyone that can try this on various versions of Windows to see 
if this problem is specific to Win 10?

Try typing the following into the message box:

put URL 
"http://test_auth:test_pass@downloads.techstrategies.com.au/test_auth/"

If it is successful, you should see "Authentication successful." appear 
in the message box.

Thanks,

Charles
