Web Connect logging user names and passwords in plaintext.

Hi all, I was looking over the application logs on the Server 2012 that I have Web Connect installed on. I noticed that user names and passwords are being logged in plaintext. This can't be by design?

It is Version 1.2.0.320 installed on Server 2012 R2. debug is set to false. If there is anything I can do to help troubleshoot this, please let me know...

I think the reason is that user and password are sent by GET in the URL. See issue #99 that I just opened. User and password are also in the browser log/history. So everybody with access to the browser is able to get user and and password.
