@t3rmin4tor : Okay, basically, there’s no security in basic auth, but at least SSL takes care that no one intercepts it, hmm….

Yeah, so true, I had fun playing with ‘you know what’ too

@Gopal : Sorry, Iâ€™m ignorant here. Is HTTP Basic auth insecure? How is it different from POP3 auth

Basic HTTP auth sends your password something like this

GET / HTTP/1.1 Authorization: Basic dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA==

>>> import base64
>>> base64.decodestring("dXNlcjpwYXNzd29yZA==") 'user:password'

But I just noticed that feed was on an https:// SSL connection, so there’s really no problem with man in the middle.

PS: I’m just itching for the day when ‘you know what’ puts up the SOAP api on developer.yahoo.net
