Is there any way to hide the entire address from the address bar or even just part of it I am developing a web application that includes another web application. That application uses the address bar to pass the user name and password, and I don't want that information to be shown.

Thanks

Encrypt the user name and the password and decrypt it at the server.

You should consider a different architecture. Anyone who watches their web traffic (say, with Fiddler from www.fiddler2.com) will be able to trivially view the usernames and passwords.

Simple encryption won't necessarily help you here, because the viewer can simply replay the encrypted credentials.
