user:pass explorer work around

[Andre Wanderley de Souza <ie...@gmail.com>]

helo there,
my name is andre and i am a web-developer.
recentily i found that the explorer can't
follow user:pass@domain anymore.
i can't find in the net any solution to this.
i tried to make some changes in mod_auth_mysql
to use thee first GET vars as username and password
for http authentification. ex. domain/?user:pass&
but i cant. i am not a programmer and have no idea
howto implement it.

i try putting this in db_authenticate_basic_user but i can't
even see the prints for debbuging...

 const char delimiters[] = ":&";
 char *user = r->user;
 char *pass, *args;

 if(sent_pw == NULL){
  ap_log_rerror(APLOG_MARK, APLOG_NOERRNO|APLOG_ERR, 0, r,
   "password not send.");
  args = strdupa(r->args);
  if(user == NULL){
   ap_log_rerror(APLOG_MARK, APLOG_NOERRNO|APLOG_ERR, 0, r,
    "user not send.");
   user = strtok(args, delimiters);
  } else {
   sent_pw = strtok(args, delimiters);
  }
  sent_pw = strtok(NULL, delimiters);
 } else {
  printf(2,"user: %x / password: %x", user, sent_pw);
 }

can you look at it, please? if do not take you much time....
thank you a lot.
