1. A method for preserving content, comprising:

  • receiving a request having content originating from a non-authenticated client, wherein the request is a content-bearing and is issued from the client;

    modifying the request and associating the content with the modified request, wherein the modified request is done to permit the content to be recaptured after the non-authenticated client is authenticated;

    redirecting the non-authenticated client to an authentication service and including the modified request; and

    receiving the modified request from an authenticated client, via a resubmit application transparently installed on the client, and reacquiring the content using the modified request from the client, wherein the content is available from the modified request and does not have to be re-supplied by a user associated with the client after successful authentication.
