Hello,

I am trying to scrape a website that requires authentication on the home page
(entered in a login form).
Here's what I do: I click on ‘capture URL’, I enter the proxy and port in
the manual proxy configuration of Microsoft Edge (I have previously disabled
automatic proxy settings detection), on my site I click on the login button
after entering my login and password on the page. But nothing happens in
Httrack, the ‘link caught’ window that should open does not appear, and on
the Edge page I am logged in to the site as usual.

I also tried entering the proxy configuration data provided by Httrack in the
options (under the ‘proxy server’ tab), but there was no improvement.

Have I missed something?
Could I be blocked by an antivirus programme?
Thank you for your help ;)
