Check your config file..

Something isn't right with your .htaccess protection code. I use it all the time and if it fails, I get an Access Denied screen. The admincp .htaccess file should look like this:

AuthName "Protected Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/user/pathtoyourpasswordfolder/.htpasswd
require valid-user

You should put your password file OUTSIDE your webroot for a more secure configuration.

yes bro i put in out but when i tested and i clicked button cancel still goto the page not 401 authentication error why that bro

Dumb question, this .htaccess file that you are using is IN the admincp folder?

Does the username and password part work? What operating system is your server?

BTW do you have a control panel?

e.g cpanel, lxadmin, da

@virus - do you also have a .htaccess in your forum root for VBSEO? Reason I ask is mine does the same thing and I suspect having another .htaccess file in a level above this one may be the reason.

yes bro i have the .htaccess in my root and abou vbseo i don't get any error coz i follow the intruction..i think this about my cpanel not run good about page error i must creat custom page error..just my prob that not run error page default must custom and run good thanks all for the suggets and i will try to ask my host about this..

In my case it does have an affect. I renamed my .htaccess in my forum root, then tried to access my admincp and pressed Cancel and it worked like it should, giving me a 404 error. When the .htaccess in my forum root is active and I press Cancel in admincp, it goes to the admincp login. The .htaccess password request keeps popping up after that, but eventually it goes away if I keep hitting Cancel. Either it has something to do with having an .htaccess file above the admincp .htaccess OR it is being affected by the VBSEO rewriting. I'll be looking into this further and let you know what I find out. Other opinions are welcome.

EDIT: I found that if you comment out the RewriteEngine On statement in the VBSEO .htaccess, the admincp .htaccess works as it should.
