.htaccess password for admincp/modcp dir's.

[kevinmanphp]

Just a real quick question...

Is it advisable to password protect the 'admincp' and 'modcp' directories using .htaccess? I wasn't sure if by doing so it would break functionality or cause problems for end-users.

Thanks.

Point 3 recommends doing just that.
