Windows XP problems with Integrated Windows authentication..

Hi all,

We have an Intranet(IIS 5) with Integrated Windows authentication for
automatic login.
It works just fine for all users, but some Windows XP-users have experienced
this:
they are prompted for username and password when they leave the intranet and
are "surfing" on the Internet.

We're using a proxy.
We also have Windows 2000-users and they never get this problem.

Example:
The user starts the Intranet it works fine, now the user enters for example
www.google.com: now the user is prompted for username and password.

Any ideas?

I suspect that som setting(s) in the Internet Explorer for the XP-users has
to be changed but I'm not really sure.

Thanks in advance
/Magnus

They're prompted when they hit google? If so, sounds like a proxy config
issue ...
