Answer 1

Another possible cause is an Authentication setting. Within IIS7,

1. Select the site under Default Web Site

2. Select Authentication

3. Select Windows Authentication and enable. Disable all others.

4. While Windows Authentication is still selected, click on Advanced Settings in the Actions pane.

5. Make sure Extended Protection is on Accept and check the Enable Kernel-mode authentication
