Have you tried changing the authentication options in the Internet Service
Manager (or whatever it's called)? I can't get to my IIS server now, but if
I remember correctly, if you go to your web site's properties window and
click on "security" or something, there are three choices. One of them is
basic, and the second two are NT security. (It's all a bit fuzzy in my mind;
I haven't looked at it in a while.) Perhaps turning of the NT checkboxes
would help.
Just a blind guess...
