My website running on Windows 2003 is suddenly prompting
for username and password when someone visits the site.
I've not made any changes in the IIS. Please help.

a) Do you have anonymous authentication enabled or not?

b) If "yes" above, does the anonymous user have appropriate NTFS permissions
to the content?

c) If "no" above, what authentication mechanisms have you enabled?

d) Anything in the Windows Event Logs?

Cheers
Ken
