Why do I have a page hit for 404.php after each legitimate pagehit?

I'm working with an intranet system that, on each page, checks the user's cookie, verifies that they can see the current page based on database permissions, and records a page hit that includes their id and the page URL.

I just noticed that in the pagehits table, I see an entry for 404.php (my custom 404 page specified in the Apache config) one second after each legitimate page hit.

Is this probably my fault, or does it have something to do with how Apache decides to load the 404 page?

I'm using Apache 2.2.14 (Win32) and PHP 5.3.2.
