         <title>The Web Login Window</title>
         <para>Sometimes you will be required to log into a website associated with certain data providers. The frequency at which you may have to log in is not determined by Conduit, but by the security policy of the respective data provider. For example, Box.net requires you to log in every time Conduit is run, whereas Flickr only requires you to log in once, to give permission to Conduit to upload photos. If you are required to log into a website, and you have selected the 'use built in web browser' from the Conduit preferences, then a window will pop up like the one shown below. </para>
