WWW-Authenticate bug

Hello,

It seems Amaya freezes when the wrong credentials are entered for HTTP
Digest (and possibly Basic) authentication.  I am running Amaya
(Help/About reports amaya - 9.1.4 May 31 2005) on Windows XP.  Steps
to reproduce:

1. Open or save a document in a WebDAV repository protected by HTTP
Digest authentication.

2. Submit invalid credentials.

3. Watch Amaya try to save the document over, and over, and over, with
the same credentials.

4. Try to close Amaya, and cancel instead of saving the document when
prompted.

5. See step 3.  )-:

I would expect Amaya to abort the request and prompt the user for
correct credentials.  Is this a known issue?  I haven't found any
discussion in the list archives...

Regards,
Aaron
