Getting a username and password after

typing in http://localhost/ . Why am i getting a dialog box to enter
in a username and password after installing Apache 2.2 to my local
desktop? I wanted to test my installation and getting this popup
dialog box instead. Also, i can't seem to start the monitor service
either. It is still a red icon. I had downloaded the Win32 Binary
including OpenSSL 0.9.8h (MSI Installer) file earlier and installed it
afterwards. Thanks.

I want to add that during installation i selected " for all users, on
Port 80, as a Service". Don't know if i need to choose 8080 option or
not. thanks.
