Run a Trace on his traffic from PC to IIS. He could be getting proxied along the way or something similar.

This is driving me absolutely looney. I checked if he had a proxy enabled and there wasn't one. I am not suer how to run a trace on his traffic. I have confirmed several times that he is indeed logged in as himself and not the administrator, but the authentication function still insists on trying to log him in as an administrator in our other domain. The username its trying to insert based on Bruce's troubleshooting isn't even in the DB....

Not sure if this quite fits your issue, depends on whether you are running SQL Server on a seperate box; but take a look at the IIS Double Hop issue.It just takes Reporting Services as an example, should apply to other SQL Apps as well.

I figured out the problem this morning. Thank you all very much for your assistance. Basically what was happening is his machine had a cached credential for that server that it was authenticating with in leiu of his own credentials. Here is a brief description of what I did to resolve it:
 
1) Click Start, Settings, Control Panel, User Accounts.

2) Click the Advanced tab.

3) Click Manage Passwords.

4) Selected the cached entry for the Intranet site and removed it.
 
His machine is Windows XP SP2 by the way.
 
Thanks again for all your help guys!
