Continually asking for username and password

When I browse the workspace using Windows Explorer, I repeatedly am asked for username and password, approximately every 5 minutes as long as I have explorer open. It prompts me three times and then goes away. I have coordinator priviledges for everything.

Also, I use the folders view on the left of Explorer. Many times, I can click on one folder and it will display the folder contents in the right side. But, if I click on any other folder, the contents do not update. Even if I force a refresh by F5 or right-clicking, the contents don't update. I can right-click on the folder and select open. A new window opens and the contents are correct and I can access everything.

Also, if I go to the workspace through "My Network Places" I can see all the folders and content as I double click through the folder structure. I am not prompted for username and password through this method either.

Does anyone have a clue? I searched the MS KB but couldn't find information specific to my problem. A specific KB link would be helpful.

Thanks,

Get this.

I turned the folder view off and double-clicked my way around the folder structure for a while. I then turned the folder view back on and now the right panel updates the content as it is supposed to.
