Looks like a browser "bug".

   Some browsers do not automatically pass authentication
   information to requests down in a protected hierarchy.

   It is not a real bug, as HTTP only specifies that they
   should do so, not that they must do so.

   Older versions of IE 5 (IE 5.0) are known to behave this way.
