merge replication only need passwrd first time

Hello
I have an applicatiuon on a pda where i can synchronize the pda with
sql server 2000
When I start the application on open the synchronize window i have to
enter a user id and password.
repl.InternetLogin = userId
repl.InternetPassword = Password
I start the synchronization and it works.
The second time i synchronize it still works even with no password.
Why is that? I have to stop the application and start it again for it
to work.
If I enetr a wrong password when I synchronize the first time, I gett e
message saying: Authentication failed on the computer running IIS
I would like to get this message all the time when I synchronize with
an incorrect password.
What can I be doing wrong.
What form of authentication are you using on your IIS Server. Is it possible
that you have a blank password for the account userID?
