Windows Login box appears while accessing certain resources


Hi,

I'm using Forms authentication in my ASP.NET web application. When I deploy
this application in a Windows 2000 server machine and access the application
.... everything works fine except that for certain resources like images
created using, excel exports a Windows login prompt appears. Now as a
temporary fix, I've created a local user in the server and we give the
credentials of this user when the login prompt appears.

For Info,

I've enabled Anonymous authentication in IIS. Also, I've set proper
privileges to ASPNET local user for all the necessary folders.
Thanks for any insight into why this is happening and how to avoid such
prompts.

I and trying to detect idle time or sorts in the applications I'm building. To do this the main Form also inherits from IMessageFilter and I listen for WM_MOUSEMOVE. When that happens I reset a DateTime. To check the time between last mouse move I have a timer (System.Threading.Timer) If the the DateTime math meets a certain threshold I want to show our login dialog, essentially locking people out of this unattended app.

I have a website using windows integrated security, with anonymous access turned off. The site is used to query orders from a database and when the search takes a long time, a windows login box appears. Regardless of what login the user enters into this, it does not accept it and the user is locked out of the system. Our network team and myself have been unable to find out why this is occurring, has anyone else had a similiar problem?...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
