    Default IIS Security strange things

    I have intranet application based on ASP.NET on Win2000AS (Framework 1.1).

    Website uses an Integrated Windows Authentication as Authentication method
    in IIS and has following security configuration in the web.config

    ------------------------------------------
    <identity impersonate="false" />

    <authentication mode="Windows" />
    <authorization>
    <deny users="?" />
    </authorization>

    <customErrors defaultRedirect="CustomError.aspx" mode="Off">
    <error statusCode="401" redirect="Custom401.html"/>
    </customErrors>
    ------------------------------------------

    And everything goes fine for 99.9% users and not for one only, who always
    get a popup login window to login this website.
    He has WinXP box, with latest browser, like many others, but for any reason
    website cannot recognize that user as a valid internal user.

    Any ideas? Thank you
