I find that it asks me for the password login info on ANY
site that has *linkshare* or 3rd party advertizing on it.
If i click cancel, the page shows up , but without the
images (of the advertisements). I tried to go to eg:
commission junction www.cj.com and the pw window comes up
before i even open the site. Could any of this possibly
be a setting in Administration, Internet Information
Service? I have a ASP site running in Personal Web
Server, and found turning the site on or off doesnt seem
to matter here but who knows?. See attached gif.when i
just go to EBAY.ca. Call me confused.
