Are you using Windows Authentication in IIS? If Anonymous access is allowed, the auth_user would probably be blank..

when I turn off Anonymous i get this error,

This is usually caused by a server-side script not sending the proper
WWW-Authenticate header field. Using Active Server Pages scripting this
is done by using the AddHeader method of the Response object to request
that the client use a certain authentication method to access the
resource.

What is the error number? And there seems to be some of the error text
missing ...

Dumb question, but are your users authorized to the site and the
folders in NTFS permissions? Does this work with the Administrator
account?
