Lerch,
Try removing the connection then recreating it, during the setup wizard choose to create a desktop shortcut for the connection and see if you experience the same problem.

I dont really know what could be causing your problem. I experienced a situation with windows 2000 where the password masking currupts the password causing me to get an invalid password message. I would have to delete the current password and manually enter it to get connected. I was able to resolve this by connecting with the connection shortcut created in DUNs wizard instead of just using IEs quick launch.
