Descargar un archivo con DefaultHTTPClient y autenticación preventiva

Question

Después de que tuve muchos problemas con la autenticación preventiva, finalmente funcioné. Ahora el siguiente problema. Quiero obtener un archivo con él, pero no sé cómo. Pensé que los datos del archivo podrían estar en la respuesta variable, pero no es así. ¿Alguna idea de cómo podría funcionar esto? Estoy intentando que desde los días sin éxito :(-.. Básicamente estoy tratando de descargar un archivo JPEG, que está en un servidor protegido por Prem auth

Bueno, lo resolví yo ahora - aquí la solución:

 StringBuffer tmp = new StringBuffer(); // for content 

     if (entity != null) { 
      InputStream is = entity.getContent(); 

      int l = 0; 
      byte[] t = new byte[1024]; 

      while ((l = is.read(t)) != -1) { 
       for (int i=0; i<l ; i++){ 
        tmp.append((char)t[i]); 
       } 
      } 
     } 

     return tmp.toString();
