Hey ~

I may be missing something, but your question doesn't make sense to me... If
a IP address, or subnet\fqdn, is denied - IIS sends a 403.x (unsure of the
status). IIS isn't prompting, this is IE's behavior. IE attempts 3 times
and receives the failure.

Authentication\Authorization doesn't take place if the IP address is
disallowed because IIS reads the header and sends the deny with the status
code and IIS is done...

Can you clarify what you want or desire for IIS to do?

Thanks,
