TWebBrowser authentication

Hi All,
i am usign TWebBrowser to embed a browser in my form. From the TWebBrowser i call Navigate2() method to navigate to a url. Before the URL opens, a dialog is displayed to get the userid and password from the user.
is there any way i can pass the information from the browser to the server without interrupting the user with the message box..
Appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Preetham.
