Server requesting pw to be sent INSECURE (basic authentication)

[GillReno]

When attempting to Open Web, the login window keeps returning even though
username and password are correct. It displays the following:
Warning: This server is requesting that your username and password be sent
in an insecure manner (basic authentication without a secure connection). How
do I either comply or get the server to require a secure login? About a year
ago I used to be able to login without any problem at all. The web host
provider is the same, and I'm using the same Front Page 2002. Front Page
Extensions are on and web is unlocked.

Your solution will be considered a blessing.

In the "Open site" dialogue box, make sure the fully qualified entire URL is
in there, i.e. httpS://www.yourdomain.com.

That will tell FP to communicate in secured mode.
