How is the password sent to the site? Do users log in through a HTML form,
or is it by Basic or NTLM authenticiation? If it's an HTML form then the ASP
pages are storing the login information and it should be possible to keep
the current login but require the new password at the _next_ login. 

If passwords are being handled by Basic/NTLM authentication, then it would
make sense that it balks at the next page access because the browser's
Authorization header information is now incorrect and it would require
another login.
