Maybe my definition was wrong.
what I really need as the ability to get authenticated to active directory
through custom login page in an anonymous authentication site as if
I was now authenticating in an windows authentication site (with the gray
username/password popup window).
This way if i will ne next navigation to real windows authentication site I
will no longer be needing to get authenticated again.

Hope that is clearer now.

If I understand you correctly, this cannot be done. There is no way a
webserver can pass Internet Explorer the credentials it now should use in
place of its current credentials. It sounds like though that if you start
Internet Explorer using the "Run As" command, you should be able to change
the credentials to something other than the currently logged on user. To
start using "Run As" you have to be running 2000+, find the iexplore.exe
file, right click (you need to hold "shift" in windows 2000), select "Run
As...", enter the new credentials, and browse to Application 2.

Hope this helps,
