perhaps far away from the correct solution: the web server is trying to
authenticate with 'Integrated Windows authentication' and your domain
account. But your personal firewall, router, or your Internet TCP/IP
Protocol filter settings are tightend and are not allowing this
authentication protocol. Try to fall back to just only basic authentication
as authentication method at the web server. Perhaps that helps.
