I have the same problem. I also see it after the user sets up secret questions 
for the first time. After inputting the answers for the first time and saving 
the person is Redirected to /public with a 404 error. The changes are 
successful. If they log in and setup questions again the redirect works, but it 
is a /private address. My server is also Windows, hope that helps find the 
problem.

Exact same issue here. It's driving me nuts. It's the only thing stopping us 
from going live.

I ended up "fixing" this by redirecting the /public folder to /private. To do 
this, you need to download and copy the relevant files from here: 
http://www.tuckey.org/urlrewrite/#download

Once that is installed, add the following lines into urlrewrite.xml:

    <rule>
        <note>
            Forward requests from /public to /private
        </note>
        <from>^/public/$</from>
        <to type="redirect">%{context-path}/private</to>
    </rule>

Hope this helps you out!
