because Firefox isn't as trusting as IE is.

Can you post an example of a URL? A lot depends on how your calling the files, are you going out of your firewall and back in? Do you actually want to prompt for username/password? How is IIS configured? Is it a secured folder? Did you change IIS or the folder permissions off the IUSR permission set?

Hi:

I simply install IIS on my system and set web sharing of folder that contain my website and then try to load my site using this address for example:

http://localhost/mysite

I did not change any configurations.

I use Firefox 1.5.0.3 and IIS 5.1.

Is it showing up as a virtual directory in the IIS admin tool?

Yes it is.
