Just enter the domain with a wildcard. For example to block AOL you would use\n\n*@aol.com

I think you must mean fsp.exe > This is a program named Folder Shield - allows you to hide entire directories and thus prevent access by anyone else to your personal files and documents. It is up to you to decide whether you need this or not.\nUse the links below to help you decide.

You can't. You either need to specify the subdirectory (e.g. src=<images/image1.jpg" /> or else move the images into the same directory as your files (I wouldn't recommend that). Also, by the way, you should add a slash at the end of your br's and img's, like this:\n\n<img src="image1.jpg" /><br /><br />\n\nThis will make it XHTML compliant, which you should definately adhere to. I am a web designer, so if you need help, send me a message!

Your cPanel you are using likely creates a .htaccess file in your /admin directory. It is hard to check this as many servers hide this file and windows will not let you work with files that begin with a period.\n\n.htaccess files are recursive. In otherwords they control everything down stream. Until they meet another one to modify them.\n\nWhat you could try (if the .htaccess file is being used on the /admin directory). Is to use another .htaccess file in your /admin/uploads/ directory with the following:\nRequire valid-user\nAllow from all\nSatisfy Any\n\nThat will make any directories in that /admin/uploads/ to be guest access.\n\nNow to upload an .htaccess file:\nupload it as htaccess.txt\ndo a rename to .htaccess\nif you want to delete it later do a quote command dele .htaccess

Nothing is 100% safe.  I don't think My space is nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be.  Geocities is another option.

In Windows XP, there are a few ways to do it, but the easiest is to compress the folder and use the folder's built-in password protection. See this article:\n\nhttp://www.pcworld.com/howto/article/0,aid,110663,00.asp

hello,\nyou dont need a program, just select which directory you want to make "password protected" .. your host should give this option. If not I would suggest a different host like yahoo hosting which has this option.
