Authentication mode Windows not working

When I try to access my page I only get redirected to login.aspx, which is not what's intended.

What I'm after is instead a windows login popup where I authenticate if my current logged in user is not allowed, and if it is, it goes straight to the application.

I'm running a MVC4 project on an IIS6 webserver (yeah, I know.).

I've disabled "Enable anonymous access" in Directory Security - Authentication and access control and checked in "Integrated Windows authentication".

My web.config looks as follows:

<authorization>
  <allow roles="DOMAIN\Role1"/>
  <deny users="*"/>
  <deny users="?"/>
</authorization>
<compilation targetFramework="4.0" debug="true"/>
<authentication mode="Windows">
</authentication>

Any clues?

I finally figured this out, by finding this stackoverflow question:
ASP.NET MVC3 and Windows Auth on IIS keeps redirecting to /Account/Login

By removing the references WebMatrix.Data.dll and/or WebMatrix.WebData.dll it worked as intended.
