[pchelpers] Password Problem

There is a WWW site that I have gone to on a regular basis for ten years. 
Out of the blue, when I click onto that site, I am requested to post a user 
name and password. This is a local government site. This address is listed 
in a link folder. When I point to the icon for this link a reminder appears 
above it's address which states, "You are not authorized
to visit this site." This is before I click the icon. It makes me suspect 
that I have inadvertently blocked this address. This is an XP computer. I 
have another old computer
with Windows 95. When I attempt to link to that address on that computer, I 
get the
same message, "You are not authorized to visit this site" ?????????????? 
Each computer is connected to a modem from comcast.net.
Is there something in the operating system  that allows the blocking of an 
address even beforethe computer tries to link up with that address?

The site is:

 www.assessor.shelby.tn.us.

The message is a form that is not within that site. It appears to be a 
Microsoft box with a
couple of keys imaged on it requesting a user name and password.

Thanks.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
