Connecting to website secure area fails - Passport problem?

Not sure if this is a Passport problem or an XP Problem

I am trying to connect to a secure area of a website which asks for my
User Name and Password in a pop-up window titled 'Connect to' (followed
by website URL). I type in my User Name and Password correctly (with the
correct case) but the website refuses to accept them. I seem to remember
having a similar problem once before and solving it it involved changing
an entry in some Windows XP registration file I think.

Anybody know how to solve it?

Thanks
