I believe that is documented and by-design. You must have used your
administrator account as an anonymous user on IIS, which is a security
vulnerability.
So, I suggest that you stop using an administrator as anonymous user (you
basically allow anyone in the world to run as administrator on your
machine -- highly insecure) and revert the Web Anonymous Users group
settings.

I would search for this info. I remember seeing URLs documenting what
happens in any IE Internet Zone and what each feature means -- but that is
an IE question, not IIS/Security.

Hi. I'm running Win XP Pro Sp2. After running the iis lockdown tool, my administrator account got changed so that this account is a member of the Web Anonymous Users. After rebooting, when I try logging in, I'm immediately logged out. Removing the Web Anonymous Users fixes things. Can someone explain what might be happening? I'm also using pivx's qwik-fix security tool which does place some internet explorer restrictions. I'd also be interested in info documenting what the various computer and internet zones mean relative to internet explorer and relative to the operating system itself exclusive of the internet.
