Different credentials in Azure publish profile

Let's say I just want to upload a simple index.html file on my Azure web site (called "test"). To do this, I set my deployment credentials. For example, username: frog password: froggy

I am able to use these credentials to upload the file using an FTP client (i.e. FileZilla) but when I download the PublishProfile it has different credentials. Namely, username: test\$test password: (someEncryptedLongCharacters)

These last credentials work as well!

What is going on?

Thank you.

Every site has two types of FTP credentials: The credentials for the admin user of the site (which is what you're expecting), and the site's own FTP credentials. When you download the publishing profile you're seeing the site's own credentials.
