Ali, you might check with the hosting company to see if they have an installed script for passwording directories. If they do, it's just a matter of following the directions in the script or the accompanying documentation.

The examples of how to do it so far has been rather confusing. I get that there needs to be a .htaccess and .htpasswd but the Where and How varies from tutorial to tutorial that I've found. Does anyone have a simple way of doing it and wouldn't mind pointing the way?
