  1. I want to create a folder/directory under my Web siteroot that I can upload personal documents to for storage. How can I password protect this folder so that the general public cannot see my documents?

    Thanks,
    Jay
     
    1. Login into your Control Panel
    2. In Tools and Utilities click on IIS Manager.
    3. Select the Directory Browsing tab at the top.
    4. Change theCurrent Directory Browsing Setting: to Off
    5. You can also go to the Permission Manager section and change permissions for any folder.
     
  2. Excellent! Thanks!
