If through the use of an .htaccess file or similar mechanism I get asked 
for a login and password (you'll get a actual dialog box pop up on the 
client that is authenticating to the website), that is HTTP 
authentication.   It isn't an IMP mechanism, but according to Jan it 
will put the username that is in use into the name field.

If it is being populated beyond that, it's likely the client remembering 
the login info for that site.
