invalid authorization specification error? Frontpage DB wizard

I have searched high and low to find out what this means... and I can't. My
connection to the SQL server from Frontpage 2003 database wizard worked then
suddenly didn't. What did I inadvertently change... if anything... Sounds
like an SQL isn't letting me retrieve..but I have no idea why...
Help

What error message is being reported back by Frontpage?
Is the SQL Server running?
Did you install any service packs, upgrades, other software?

|||That was what the browser was reporting: invalid authorization specification
in the database results wizard... Yet, when I coded my own connection instead
of using the wizard on a page.. It worked fine...
When I changed the authentication method on the server to send in clear text
as per:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...;en-us;Q247931
It seemed to start to work again... Yet I recalled re-setting nothing of the
sort...
I was lead here by changing trusted_connection to yes and following the
message from there...

Glad you got it working again.
I wonder if you have automatic updates turned on and it installed a service
pack for IIS or IE that may have reset that value...
