> If you set authorizations stuff in the HTTPConduit with a wrong password or
> username and issue a GET, 20 requests are sent to the server. For
> non-streaming connections (like GET), for the 401 response, the
> HttpURLConnection calls the Authenticator to get auth information. We create
> a new PasswordAuthentication object and return it each time. However, the
> HttpURLConnection does not compare that returned value with the previous
> value and will keep trying until it hits the http.maxRedirects value (default
> is 20).
