"Enter network password" popup. Why?

I recently installed ASP.net 2.0 and was playing around with it yesterday. I created a web page on my local machine and everything was working fine. I published it to a web server on our network and that worked fine. Then I did *something*, I don't know what, and now when I try to load the page from the network web server I get the "Enter network password" prompt (user name, password, domain). I am able to browse the folder, but when I click on a file (the blank default.aspx, for example), I get the password prompt and am unable to see the page. Does anyone know what I might have done to cause this, and more importantly, how I can fix it? Thanks.
 
It's most likely a file or folder that the ASPNET account doesn't have access to...

The ASPNET account has "Read & Execute", "List Folder Contents", and "Read" permissions on the folder and the v2.0.50727 folder. And my ASP.net 1.1 application runs ok and it's on the same web server. It seems to just be a 2.0 issue.
 
It may have permissions on the folder, but files contained within it don't necessarily inherit those permissions. I'd re-apply the permissions and make sure you cascade them down to all files and folders.
