Re: WSS 3.0 prompting for authentication on Vista clients

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

The thing that fixed this for me was to add our Sharepoint Server to the "Local intranet" Zone (not "Trusted sites", AND to disable Protected Mode on this zone.

(You can see how protected mode would create trouble, since it forces IE to run in a low-privilege mode that cannot share information with other running applications.)

This was really starting to get on my nerves! I am happy to finally have a solution, even if it does "put my computer at risk" according to the pop-ups in IE7.

Office 2007 Enterprise Edition on Windows Vista Business - get logon
prompts continuously when opening and saving documents.

Office 2007 EE on Windows XP works perfectly

I do not have any Proxy Server etc.

Single Domain, and MOSS 2007 Site has been added to the trusted sites
list.

I have also tried disabling protected mode on all the IE security
options and setting Trusted sites to the lowest security possible

HELP !!!
