I need to automate the &quot;navigation&quot; of the webbrowser control in VB.NET to a secure (HTTPS) URL.<br />

When I use the syntax:<br />
<br />
<a href="http" rel="ugc">http</a>: //uid:password@www.&lt;domain<wbr />&gt;.com<br />
<br />
It works fine.<br />

<a href="https" rel="ugc">https</a>: //uid:password@www.&lt;domain<wbr />&gt;.com<br />
<br />
It does NOT work.<br />

I'd really like to stick with the webbrowser control for this. It is a WinForms app that uses the browser as a display to the user.
