Most likely an IE issue. In IE, Go to Tools -> Internet Options ->
Security -> Custom Level -> User Authentication -> Logon and make sure it's
not prompting for intranet use. You can also add your domain or IP to the
no proxy setting to get IE to recognize it as the intranet. Tools ->
Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings -> Advanced.

In security configuration you need to go Tools > Internet Options > Security
> Local intranet > Sites... > Advanced > Add this web site or IP to the
zone.
