Hi Snjezana
good point!
I already found out about this when looking at different Eclipse
plugins. EGit does it, Scout and apparently ECF, too. Quite a mess to be
honest: A bad API in the jdk UrlConnection, a poor implementation in
org.eclipse.ui and here we are: plenty of plugins overriding the
Authenticator with unpredictable results.
Cheers

I think you can disable it by setting your own authenticator.
You can check how ECF sets its authenticator using the
org.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.retrieve.UrlConnectionRetrieveFileTransfer.UrlConnectionAuthenticator
class and the Authenticator.setDefault method.
