This has worked for me ... except ... that the URI was to a page that auto-loaded a javascript URI and a CSS URI and an iframe HTML URI. WireShark shows that the original request has the correct credentials, but that one or more subordinate requests do not have the provided credentials. Still hunting a solution.

I chose to post to this old question (and yes, I knew it was an old question) because I felt that the original answer did not properly address the actual question. My answer allows for comparison to a "String" which is what was asked.

The reference to "The Gripping Hand" is a reference to "A Mote in God's Eye" by David Brin. Well worth the time to find it and read it.

The MSDN says that the stream must remain open for the life of the image.
To get around this there are two solutions.

// force it to make a deep copy, which reads the stream.
1: img = img.Clone();

// force it to make a deep copy in a polite way. ;-D
2: WritableImage wi=new WritableImage(img); wi.Freeze(); img = wi;

Excellent reasons for sticking with C/C++ as opposed to C#.

Most of the "weight" in C# programs is the .NET Framework, which is often already on the user's PC. But if the version of .NET you need isn't, then the install weight is heavy indeed.

If you are leaning towards open source, then check out OpenMFC: http://openmfc.codeplex.com/ though it appears to be still under development.
