Now I am able to access the secure page through the login page. But even 
if I close the browser ( whcih i assume will close the  session ), and 
restart it, I am able to access the secure page without going through 
the login page. Is there a place where I need to say that the login info 
should not be a permanent cookie but only session scope ???

Thanks
