I am deploying my web application on iis6. I kept receive this "windows security" pop up to enter user name and password.. I have already disabled anonymous user, and checked integrated windows authentication but it just wont "automatically" login.

What should i do?

I have check the security settings-local intranet zone: "login as automatic logon only in Intranet zone"!

Have you tried adding the web application url to the intranet security zone in internet explorer? (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/174360)

If you have windows authentication in place for your app and you don't want to prompt for username-password, then you need to try: "Automatic logon with current username & password" option.

Further, make sure the website setup in IIS allows the windows authentication along with your web.config.

For windows authentication:
1. Set the authentication type in web.Config
2. Set the Authentication mode as Windows in IIS

Now, since it's windows authentication mode, you have to provide some windows login. Hence, option "Automatic logon with current username & password".
