in your root directory. If you're guarding your files, simply put them in the folder where your files reside.im sorry i was so confusing....
i will go try all the advice....thanks all!!i am still a little confused
ok...
i am to place the previous script where all
my games are...nothing else?
and each one must say the page i want guarded?
or the particular zip i want guarded???
SO I DON'T need to do anything with .htaccess..

from hotlinking....
so just place that script with each page....right?
