internet Explorer uses integrated windows authentication which obtains your credentials from the computer you are logged into. If for some reason it cannot obtain these credentials, the browser's session is anonymous so it will prompt you. Or if the account you are using does not have access to the resource. Windows Explorer runs under under the credentials of the account you are logged into.
