[Bug 266203] Calendar password displayed in clear txt
I posted it right after the Ale message. I'm unclear as to whether it is
a firefox bad or a calendar bad. I am now leaning towardsa calendar bad.
Currently the calendar access is through a basic .htaccess form that
involves sending username and password. I have not checked to see if the
data is cached past a closing of the app yet.
