I have Windows 2000, & IE6. When I try to use my account
on certain web sites,and I enter my name & password on the
home page,the url changes in the browser bar to the (long)
url of my account page. The home page disappears
momentarily, then the url in the browser bar changes back
to the default page url and the home page re-opens.
It behaves as though there's a firewall, but I don't have
a firewall. Ihave set privacy and security settings to
low,and made the site a trusted site, and allowed
cookies from them, but it makes no difference.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong and how to put it right????
 
Are you being prompted again for your Password?

Internet Explorer Always Prompts for Authentication When Browsing to Web

When you connect through a caching ISA Proxy that has anonymous access, and
you try to perform a NT LAN Manager (NTLM) Authentication with an IIS4 or
IIS5 Web server, Internet Explorer 6.0 may not automatically authenticate
with NTLM pre-authorization (PreAuth). Instead, you may be continually
prompted to authenticate.
