Re: password bypass?

This would not be to bypass a login box located on a web page, this
would be to bypass the operating system login dialog box. The purpose
for this is that we have a password protected family website which
calls up the Windows login dialog box. One family member doesn't have
a real computer. He uses WebTV. When he attempts to go to the site,
he can't reach it because WebTV apparently doesn't contain the
password dialog box that's part of the Windows and Mac operating
systems.
