I know it is a known Bug but I couldn't find it under the open or closed bugs so I'm opening it:
When you try to access a webiste protected with Apache2::AuthenNTLM v 0.02 from Internet Explorer in Windows Vista or 7 you will always be asked for your credentials. In the error.log of your apache you will find a line like [error] Wrong password/user (rc=3/1/327681): DOMAIN\\user for /path/of/website and you can not log in.
A workaround is to simple create/change a registry key: HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel to DWORD value 2
But this opens a security hole.
Pleas make AuthenNTLM compatible with the Internet Explorers of Windows Vista and 7.

Christian
