Ok, let's make it really simple for those who skipped their breakfast: A user logs in, uses the site, and then goes to lunch. Two hours later (or 30 minutes if you're in the US) the user returns and sees the website. He clicks on the logout link. He gets a login page. He enters his user id and password, and then sees the "You have logged out" page.
I agree it is confusing. I feel that the user should never get a login page when clicking on the logout link, and should never get the logout page when logging in. Yet with container managed security protecting *.do this is exactly what happens.
