I would use Fiddler to see the requests and responses from the web server, "hopefully" at least one requests fails with an indication of why... :/
Is anonymous access allowed to the WLW manifest URL?

It looks like I get a "500" so next step is to understand why.

I'm trying to use the blog template from the demotemplates with Windows Live Writer.
I have used the tips below since it is a protected site:
http://world.episerver.com/Blogs/Mari-Jorgensen/Dates/2010/8/Live-Writer-and-Protected-Blog-Pages/
My problem is that Windows Live Wtier (LW) fails to connect to the blog when I try to "Add blogg account".
After entering the blog URL, username and password Live Writer giv me the following dialog:
Select blog type
Windows Live Writer was not able to automatically detect your blog settings.
Please select the type of blg that you are using to continue.
I have a zip-file with more info - web.config, code and so forth

All help and tips are welcome.
