Hello, all.

I installed wwwoffle to get me through the day at work, where I have
no Internet connection.  I set up wwwoffle to fetch overnight and
check out the stored pages almost as if I were surfing live.

But two of the sites I most want to check--salon.com and
nytimes.com--don't use simple http authentication.  They want to check
a browser's stash of cookies to ensure that I'm a subscriber.

Is there a way to tell wwwoffle how to authenticate itself to these
sites, and glean their content?

Best,
Matt
