I have a intranet site witch is managed from my computer but the folder is on
remote server (on LAN). I use IIS to publish and I take out all password check
and use anonymus login. IE goes to the site nicely but Firefox asks for user and
pass.
Any user , even administrator can't open the site.
I have admin rights on both the folder on server and local computer, still I
can't open it with firefox.

Reproducible: Always

Information on how to get this to work can be found here:

To cut to the chase you need to add you site to
network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris
