That's quite strange. I'm behind a authenticating firewall also, and with me
it only asks once.
Did you check the box right below the user&pass fields (not that it makes

By the way, do you get any proxy errors when surfing? I have this problem
that i regularly have to hit the reload-button once or twice to get the page
instead of a proxy error.
