You receive the following error message:

CAUSE

This issue occurs if both of the following conditions are true:
Microsoft Internet Explorer's Enhanced Security Configuration is enabled on the server.

-and-
You connect to the Internet through a proxy server where Basic Authentication is enabled.
The Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration (also known as Internet Explorer hardening) uses certificate revocation. This certificate revocation lookup process involves a URL retrieval operation. In this case, the URL retrieval goes through the proxy server and occurs outside the explicit context of the logged-on user. Therefore, Basic Authentication mistakenly prompts you for a user account name and password. As the user, you are typically not aware that certificates are being validated, and you may be prompted repeatedly during the validation of a series of certificates.

Note The following methods are listed in the order of the most preferred to least preferred, with the most preferred method appearing first.

Method 1: Do Not Use Basic Authentication

Avoid using Basic Authentication on the proxy server. If you must use Basic Authentication, exclude the URLs for the certificate revocation lists (CRLs) from the requirement for basic authentication. To do this, configure the following list of CRLs to be unauthenticated on the proxy server:
http://crl.microsoft.com/pki/crl/productsMicrosoftProductSecureServer.crl
http://crl.microsoft.com/pki/crl/products/MicrosoftProductSecureCommunications.crl
http://crl.microsoft.com/pki/crl/products/MicrosoftRootAuthority.crl
http://www.microsoft.com/pki/crl/productsMicrosoftProductSecureServer.crl
http://www.microsoft.com/pki/crl/products/MicrosoftProductSecureCommunications.crl
http://www.microsoft.com/pki/crl/products/MicrosoftRootAuthority.crl
