If a Web page uses the POST method to post data to a Web server by using Kerberos (or Integrated Windows) authentication, the operation may not work.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem in Microsoft Windows 2000, upgrade to Internet Explorer 6. Internet Explorer 6 for Windows 2000 does not respond to a negotiation challenge.

Unable to Negotiate Kerberos Authentication After Upgrading to Internet Explorer 6
Information for AdministratorsWARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.Administrators can disable Integrated Windows authentication by setting the EnableNegotiate DWORD value to 0 in the following registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
Note that Internet Explorer 6 for Windows 98, Internet Explorer 6 for Windows 98 Second Edition, Internet Explorer 6 for Windows Millennium Edition, and Internet Explorer 6 for Windows NT 4.0 do not respond to a negotiation challenge. By default, these versions of Internet Explorer use NTLM authentication, even if the Enable Integrated Windows Authentication (requires restart) check box is selected. This feature is not available in these versions of Windows.
