Once you enter a password to enter a password protected page, your website will remember the password until the browser is closed. This is to prevent users from constantly being asked for the same password over and over again. This can be especially annoying if you have many web pages with the same password. Once a user closes the browser, the visitor will then be asked for the password again. Once the password is entered, it will again be remembered until the user's browser is closed. Depending on the browser, "closing the browser" may mean closing "all open browsers."
