>> If I'am totaly off

Yes. Because it's a client-side issue - your browser.
When you log in sucessfully, your browser will cache your user+pass so you are not required to provide the same info again during the same browser session until you actually close your browser.

>> how apache keeps track of user after user/password

In Apache standpoint, it sees your browser sending your user+pass (from cache) again and again from page to page. From your standpoint (the user of the browser) probably didn't aware your browser is doing such thing.
