* nsIHttpAuthManager
*
* This service provides access to cached HTTP authentication
* user credentials (domain, username, password) for sites
* visited during the current browser session.
*
* This interface exists to provide other HTTP stacks with the
* ability to share HTTP authentication credentials with Necko.
* This is currently used by the Java plugin (version 1.5 and
* higher) to avoid duplicate authentication prompts when the
* Java client fetches content from a HTTP site that the user
* has already logged into.
