Make sure you select "Windows" credentials and that the username you choose includes the domain.  If you username was a service account called "Service" on a domain called "ABC" the username would be 'ABC\Service' (without quotes).

 

If your SharePoint folder is open to 'everyone' and doesn't need credentials, select authentication type of 'Anonymous' instead.
