Double prompt for authentication

Hi Guys

Bit of a problem that I hope you can help with. We have an IIS6 setup
with Frontpage Server Extensions 2002. We have set up all websites
using permissions through frontpage server extensions.

The problem we are having is when someone opens a word document on the
website with the permission of contributor, they are prompted twice for

authentication. If they click cancel both times they can get to the
document. The funny thing is if you set their permission to author
there is no authentication box and they get in first time!

HELP!!!

Thanks
Nick
