Import data into Excel 2003 using the login page

I am creating a project, and I understand that Excel 2003 supports importing data from external web pages using "Data → Import External Data → New Web Request".

This can be done using the following steps listed here: http://www.internet4classrooms.com/excel_import.htm

However, the site on which I import data is an internal website (Intranet), and it requires a login every time I access it.

The website does not remember the password, and every time I click the "import" button, it does nothing because of the login.

How do I enter a username + password and enter the site when importing data from an external website into Excel 2003?
