Set password for an RSS feed in Outlook 2010

I am subscribed to an RSS feed in Outlook that requires a username and password. It's been working fine on my old computer with Outlook 2007. Now I've installed Office 2010 on a new computer and Outlook cannot get the feed. I've looked all through the Properties dialog for that RSS feed folder and don't see any way of updating the credentials. I don't want to delete and re-create it because the main reason I'm pulling this feed into Outlook is I want to archive it. Old posts drop off the feed and I want to keep them.

For me (Office 2007) the the user in the RSS URL doesn't help. This helped me out: In Outlook: Tools- Options - Other "Advanced Options" Disable "Sync RSS Feeds to the Common Feed List"
