ME tries to use the INET_WANUSER account for all share point access and promptly gets an access denied message plus it doesn't have the protocols built in to negate NTFS file system security even if it could prompt you for the password. However, I think there may be some third party tools that address this, or Vista may address this but I doubt it.
