If you had the ability to redirect the user to name:password@yoursite.com,
that would mean that you already know the username and password, wouldn't
it?
The username will be automatically passed if your site is in the browser's
intranet zone, security settings in the browser are set to send the logon
credentials to that zone (default in IE), and you are using integrated
authentication.
