I am finding that if I log in and open a document (a PDF), it opens in a new window correctly. Then I copy the URL displayed in that window, it looks something like this

http://www.mysite.com/DNN...Id=41&PortalId=1

Now I log out and close my browser, open a new browser and paste that URL in the address bar. I get a browser login popping up asking for a user name and password instead of just being redirected to the login page of my site. How do I make sure that browser login window does not pop up? Not that it really matters, but if I enter my user name and password in that login window, I do not get to the file, the login window just keeps opening.

Hi Sean,

Is basic Windows authentication on for that site? If so, can you switch it off and see what happens?
Alternatively you can try and make sure that anonymous users can read/execute the download.aspx that it is referring to. This might be a disk permission issue.
