It is likely that your SharePoint 2010 site returns Access Denied error when user in Visitor group accesses the page in site.
First reason for the error message:
The page which user trying to access might not have been published to major version.
For example: If your page has image which got minor version and page got published with (Major Version) then server would deny the access to page and ask for credentials.
