We have a product which runs on our website which requires that
Anonymous access not to be checked in IIS.  It uses Basic or Integrated
Windows authentication.
We are also trying to create our own login screen for that product
where a user can enter his/her userid and password and bypass the Basic
authentication prompt.
Can I post that information from the form to IIS, bypassing the IIS
login prompt?
Can the authentication header that IIS creates when a user is
authenticated be created from our custom .net login page instead?

If you're using your own custom auth then what's the point of denying
anonymous access (IIS auth)?

We are taking a 3rd party application (no access to code) and we are
trying to provide a nice login screen.  This product requires Basic or
Windows integrated authentication..  Therefore, we were hoping to
bypass the default IIS login by providing the required security object
to IIS from our form...

See:

Additionally, you can bypass the login prompt if your clients are using IE
and you can meet the following:
