Database Login Screen Problem

I have generated a very simple app that accesses a single table. At first, I was not able to connect because I was using MySQL 5. I got that fixed, but now when I run the application in a browser, it opens a connection window with user "" @http://localhost and will not allow me to log in to the database. The app uses user='user', password='user' and host='bmain'.
I cannot get past this window, nor do I understand where it is coming from.
It actually says 'Please enter user name and password for user ""@http://localhost'
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Barry

Barry,
this windows appears becasue of your webserver security settings.

Here is what you should do to disable the username and password prompt in IIS.
Open Control panel->Administrative tools->Internet Information Services.

Open Properties for the web site or for PHPRunner virtual folder->Directory Security->Anonymous access and...->Edit

Check off Anonymous access box there.
