   It is hard to say precisely what is occurring, however I would probably
approach it first with the filemon & regmon tools available from this link:
 http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/utilities.shtml

   If the issue is at all permissions-related, running both of these tools
- reproing the problem - and then searching the resulting text log files
for any 'denied' entries will sniff the problem out.

   Often we may find a stray user who does not have permissions to a
specific subdir or file which causes the subsequent prompting to take
place. If this problem was at work, the auth prompts would be consistent
however: the same user would be prompted in the same location assuming the
NTFS perms have remained the same throughout.

   On the other hand, it *might* have to do with the SSL session expiring
rather then with NTFS/registry perms. In some older IE browsers, the SSL
session would be renegotiated every 2 minutes regardless of how often the
server was set for SSL session renegotiation. Check this KB:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q265369 (Be sure
to determine whether there is any consistency to the user's browser
versions who experience it before making any modifications)
