Within the intro page, you hit the enter button to enter a secure site. You are prompted to enter your Active Directory user name & password. Instead of entering anything in, you decided not to enter, therefore you hit cancel (and not OK). You're still redirected to a page "You are not authorized to view this page." Why so??? Why shouldn't it go back to the previous page (intro page)???
 
Its the way the sites are designed, they are designed to give you an access denied page. It like when you log onto your computer if u mistype the password it gives you an error. It can also be a method for error reporting, certain sites are setup to give different errors, ie bad username badpassword, unkown user.
