Remarks
If a site uses Windows Authentication, the supplied credentials will override the logged in user's credentials.
This attribute targets methods. Only one instance of this attribute may be applied to a method.
Warning
The password is stored in plain text in source code and in the compiled assembly. Restrict access to the source code and assembly to help protect this sensitive information.
