I figured it would work this way. I know M$ products are brain dead, but I
didn't think it was that brain dead =)

If you don't have the clear text password handy, CRAM-MD5 and SPA will not
work. They use a challenge responce method. cram-md5 basically works like
this:
server sends a string.
the client takes that string and the password through hmac algorythm using
md5. Then it takes the username a space and the string, base64 encodes and
passes back to the server. The server does the same thing. If the result
doesn't match, it doesn't work.
