Since I updated to 4.01, the htaccess "autologin" doesn't work anymore. When I enter a url like "http://user:pass@www.domain.com" firefox loads the page without css and prompts for the username and password again. After clicking cancel and reloading the page. I'm logged in. This happens every time. I try to link to a file inside ( securedFolder/folder/html). The css files are in a different folder, that seems to be the problem.

Folder-structure:

securedFolder/

          /folder/html
         /css/css

  1. http://name:pwd@domain.com/path/
  2. http://name:pwd@domain.com/path

When I link to a php script inside the secured root folder, which forwards to the desired file it works. Seem's like you have to link the root folder. It's interesting as it works fine with other browsers (except IE of course)
