Answer 1

You need to add your windows id on your desktop to the allowed users in IIS.

Answer 2

Set the web service credentials to the System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials in your console app

MyWebService proxy = new MyWebService();
proxy.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

Edit

pass credentials programmatically:

MyWebService proxy = new MyWebService();
proxy.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password", "domainname");
