If you change this to
http_access deny all

users failing to successfully authenticate at the first attempt will
get no login popups.
They will still get login popups if:
- the client is not joined to a domain
- the client is configured not to attempt automatica authentication to the proxy
- the clients is not MSIE or Firefox (not sure about other browsers)
