I think I need to understand the code a bit more.

Have I understood what these lines of code actually do?

// Create a HttpWeb Request object referring to the desired URL
System.Net.HttpWebRequest Req = (System.Net.HttpWebRequest)System.Net.WebRequest.Create(URL);
// Set the security credentials to be used by the httpwebrequest
Req.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
// Specify that we will call the Get method
Req.Method = "GET";
// Actually "run" the URL and get the response back.
System.Net.WebResponse objResponse = Req.GetResponse();

If I comment out the credentials then I get a (401) Unauthorized error on my PC. Which is different to the 403 error I'm getting at the client.

How do I look at the properties of the credentials on my machine?

Thanks for all your help.
