Yes, this was what I originally tried to find out: if cURL supports that
auth by itself (automagically :) ). By now I've realized that the answer is
'no' and I'll have to code smth by hand, using no matter what tool that
helps with HTTP requests.

Thanks for help guys.

In other words, you need to simulate the actions of a normal web browser
using multiple curl requests, as Websense uses a non-standard way of
authentication which is not supported by curl (and which shouldn't be
supported).
