I wouldn't have the .htaccess chmod 666, I'd make it 644
You created the usernames and passwords for .htpasswd with htpasswd right?
sample .htaccess could be:
AuthUserFile /path/to/.htpasswd
AutGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName NotSureIt's needed
AuthType Basic
<Limit GET POST>
require valid-user
</Limit>
This works for me.
