Use your FTP program. There should be an option called CHMOD - that is what you want.

but i guess my server wont allow for me to make those kinda of changes, it keeps saying 550 CHMOD 666 not allowed on this file, so maybe my server doesnt allow php files. Thanks for the help anyway.

edit: Let me ask one thing, am I suppost to write anything in the txt file before uploading it to my server, then I should CHMOD it? right? What I mean is is there some special string of code that needs to be typed inside the txt file, in order for the server to determine that it is a legitiment php extension? I dont know im confused.
