While I had added support for this awhile back, I had made a mistake in the implementation. I wasn't properly using the API in class HttpRequest - and that meant that feeds requiring authorization didn't get the headers set correctly. That's fixed now - thanks to the work of the folks here, who set up some test feeds for developers. With those examples, I was able to find an swat the bug this morning. If you need to use an RSS Reader that can handle private feeds, grab the update.
