Hi,

Anonymous Authentication is configured for this website? Is that correct?

If so, and IIS is sending back HTTP 401 headers, then it may be having a
problem impersonating the configured anonymous user account.

If you enable Logon Auditing failure, do you see anything in the Windows
Event logs?

Cheers
Ken
