Exactly. If your browser receives a 401 response it asumes that the
username and password it remembered are incorrect and therefore asks for
new credentials. 

But try the following: Using IExploder log in, log out and cancel the
box asking for username and password. Now revisit the management screen
by manually typing in the URL or selecting it from your bookmarks. 

Voila: seems like you never logged out. The only method to reliably "log
out" that I know of is to shut down your browser completely.
