Hi, I am trying to get a datafeed from a website and under the
documentation it says to make a call to the website in the following
format

https://[email protected]:[email protected]/webservice/getFeed

However when I enter in the relevant data and go to the website I
recieve a "Windows cannot find 'https://
(e-mail address removed):[email protected]/webservice/
getFeed'. Check the spelling and try again"

Does anyone have any idea how am I suppossed to make a call to this
site?? The documentation is non-existant.

Thanks in advance
Markus

I assume you are using the System.Net.WebClient class to fetch the data. If
that is true then you need to create Network Credentials for the web client
object. Look at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.webclient.credentials.aspx
to get started.
