hi -  i have set up a site with anonymous access (to entire site).   when a user clicks on an Excel document, the windows authentication prompt comes up.  if we click Cancel, the document opens up fine.    any idea on why the prompt is coming up for Excel documents and how we can prevent this?  The prompt doesn't happen with PDFs.    thanks

by the way, Anonymous Users have 'View Items' permissions on the document library. 

Issue only appears to be with Internet Explorer.  No problems with FireFox, Chrome.
