When using Internet Explorer and Forms Authentication, printing show
little red 'x' instead of images.

All you have to do to reproduce this is :

web.config :
- <authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="Login.aspx" name=".ASPXFORMSAUTH" />
- <authorization>
<deny users="?" />

default.aspx :
- img src="a.gif"

Login.aspx :
- <asp:Login ID="Login1" runat="server" />
- protected void Login1_Authenticate(object sender,
AuthenticateEventArgs e) { e.Authenticated = true; }


Then using Internet Explorer, when you log in you can see your image,
and when you Print or Print Preview you see the little red 'x'
instead. Other browsers (FireFox, Chrome, Opera, Safari) do not react
this way and work as expected.
Is this a bug in Internet Explorer?
Has anyone reproduced it?
Does anyone have any comments, ideas, or suggestions?
 
It seems to be only in IE 8. Is this a bug in IE 8, or is there a
setting that canbe the cause of this (All my settings have been left
at the defaults).
