General consensus from what I can see is that this is some sort of crawling activity being done. | |

You're saying a user had bookmarked the URL on line 1, was redirected to login, waited a minute, then used a bookmark for the URL in line 3, then didn't login again, waited 5 minutes, tried another bookmark which also didn't work, then an hour later tried a fourth bookmark, and still didn't login? | |
