Whilst slightly updating the WebServer Help page I noticed Andreas' comment that MD5 authentication was 'pathetic'. Certainly the simple version in WebUtils might be (I couldn't honestly judge it) but we do have a fairly serious crypto package these days. Has anybody ever made WebServer/Client use the presumably much faster MD5 in that package?
