Hi

I was wondering if anyone can help me with this problem.

I am developing a website using Dreamweaver 2004 and ASP VBSCRIPT, I have some secure pages which people can only access if they have a username and password. However these page have links to Word documents, its these documents which I am trying to protect.

The secure pages are fine, however if someone knows the URL to these documents they can still access them, does any one know how to best secure these documents

Any help would be great, and I thank you in advace

I think the best thing to do is enable your whole directory with IIS security settings. So on your server you have to set a username that can access the directory.

Another real cool option is do to it with the web.config file with ASP.NET, with that you can also secure a whole directory.
