If you are sending it through an https connection, it doesn't matter
if it's GET or POST, it will be encrypted anyway. However, if you use
GET, it will be visible on the location bar.

The username:password, in this case, has nothing to do with GET or
POST. This is used to provide login and password access to that page
at the http level. I'm not sure, but I think it also goes encrypted in
that case. Gotta test it though.
