Thanks for helpine me here. If I understand you correctly, I think you are
talking about form authentication. However, since I am writing a web service
application, I can't use this approach. That is why I am thinking to use
AuthenticateRequest from either the Blobal.asax or a custom HTTP module. But
I am not sure about the difference of these two. Do you know?
