For those of you who don’t know, creating an .htaccess file allows you easily protect directories and control functions in Apache (which tis the software which drives most of the servers on the internet). But for many people KNOWING or even remembering the proper structure an .htaccess file can be difficult, but as with most difficult things in life there is software to help!

HTAccessible is a freeware program for Windows (Win95/98/ME/2000/NT4.0/XP) that allows you to graphically create .htaccess files. It is extremely EASY to use and clearly describes what each function does. A must have for any web developer, oh yeas did I mention it was FREE?
