    Hello,

    Does the pages refer any files (images, css-files etc.) which could have
    different security settings? That would cause this to happen, and if the
    file is not "necessary", the page wont look any different even if you do not
    authenticate to get the "unnecessary" file.

    You can also check the logfiles to see what files you are getting this on.
    Check for error code 401.
