Making a folder password protected.

[aptprone]

I have a folder on my site that contains about 20 .mp3 files. The files are pulled by a flash player.

I'd like to make the folder accessible ONLY to those who know the password, so they can download the songs, and also to the flash player.

In other words, in addition to the flash player being able to access and play the files, I'd also like to be able to navigate to the folder (if i am a user that knows the password) and see the list of files.

As it sits, anyone and everyone can navigate to the folder, though they probably don't know it's there.

Can anyone give me some advice or point me towards a good tutorial that might help? I've looked to no avail.

If you're using Apache, search for an htpasswd tutorial.
If you're using IIS....someone else should be able to help you. :p

Random thought: If you're using IIS, and you really want to solve this as quickly as possible, you might search for something like htpasswd iis in a search engine.
