I am trying to download file (.docx) from sharepoint 2007 library with webclient.downloadfile()... SharePoint Webapp has SSL enabled. I get 401 Unauthorized exception when trying to download the file.

Is it even possible to use webclient with SSL?

Resolution for this might be to use copy.asmx "ootb" webservice to download the file...

I can put some code samples tomorrow when I am at work.

Thanks advance!
