We have had an SSL External SharePoint 2007 requiring login site since
January. Yesterday just release our first External Anonymous SharePoint
site. Users from the outside work great; however, my domain users are being
prompted when they try to open up a document. In watching a network trace
with the occurrence it seems to have something to do with the Microsoft
Office Protocol Discover call that is made when the call for the document to
open. I realize that a second call is made when the request for the document
to open. The users do not have the problem in Fox Fire only in IE. Also I
have the WebDav accessibility is turned on in IIS. Any suggestions to a
solution.

Hi Terrie,
Can you please explain what you did?

Do all users "login" to the same site .. External users, internal users

Did you extend a web application to have multiple authentication providers?

Have you tried put the URL for the site to trusted sites in IE7 or local
instranet for IE6?
