I'm afraid not. if you using IIS authentication, by design, in local
intranet zone, IE auto login for user, hence no prompt. however, if error
during auth or user don't has permissin. IIS will chanllenge the user for
new user credential, hence IE prompt. there's no way you can 'modify' this
as. IE behave this way.

So to address you need, you might need to have own auth process. say store
in db, check session, if not login, redirect or etc.
