you were wondering how to password protect your downloads only? here's whatcha do. set up account one "geekPublic" and make everything on that site fully open and you'll want to have a "front page" that lists all the places you can go. then, make a link on that page that takes you to the "geekPrivate" site. both of which are free (apple has no limit on the number of iTools sites you make) but set up "geekPrivate" as a password protected site and then when they click on that link, http://homepage.mac.com/geekPrivate then they get the login, and the download. boobookitty http://homepage.mac.com/leila

  bonus* if the "geekPrivate" site is just
  the public folder, then when you pop into
  system preferences and change your iTools
  settings to "geekPrivate" and then click "go"
  in the finder, all you have to do is drop
  the little bit 'o code into the "public" folder
  (a misnomer, considering that it's private)
  you don't have to go to no
  stinkin iTools website to update anything
  it's all dynamic
  
  then you can go and change your system pref back to
  geekPublic and arrange your pictures just so.
