since by default anonymous access is assumed the state is never changed to
non-anonymous by the browser+IIS+CMS team. hence even with Windows
authentication

I tried this and it worked

CMS server is a Domain member
IIS configured with Basic Authentication on based on the domain as default.
CMS with guess access enabled. Created a page called Login.aspx and removed
anonymous permissions in IIS for that that page only.
Inside the page check if user has rights to the top channel and redirect to
the TOPChannel.urlunpublished +
"&WBCMODE=Presentationpublished&wbc_purpose=Basic"

Next put a link "LOGIN" on the page somewhere pointing to this absolute aspx
page. The extra bit on the url is for getting the console.

Hope this helps
