I am using site monitor plug to access lower qa envs (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/SiteMonitor+Plugin)

I would like to extend this plug in to access some of the url with basic auth for eg:- http://username:password@http://yoursite.com

Went through the source code and made the change @ https://github.com/jenkinsci/sitemonitor-plugin/pull/4

I had a discussion with the author (jieryn), and he confirmed that he is no more associated with the project .

Can you please review the code once and give me commit access, my changes can be found @https://github.com/jenkinsci/sitemonitor-plugin/pull/4
