I've tried to switch an IIS Application from Isolation Level Medium to High,
but when I press Ok or Apply the "Username/Password validation failed" error
message appears.

The IIS Application is demoted to a simple Virtual Directory.

The user that I'm using is a Local Administrator, but I've also tried with a
Domain Administrator.
It's on a Windows 2000 AS used as a member server.
The authentication is set to Anonymous.

I've already tried to search on Google but I haven't found anything.

Anything relevant appearing in the System or Application logs?

The Event viewer crashes!!! Now I try to go to the real server, perhaps it's
a VNC problem...

I've found the solution if somebody is interested:
KB Article # 296851

Now I've to check why the Event Viewer crashes... :-(

Many thanks to Gabriele Del Giovine [MVP] for the quick answer in the
italian NG.
