.htaccess help please

I was redirecting part of my site and the .htaccess file in my main folder got erased 🙁

and I have no clue what was in it.



Now when I go to my website these folders show up (they didn't before.)

[DIR] _private/ 23-Sep-2004 23:23 -
[DIR] _vti_bin/ 23-Sep-2004 23:23 -
[DIR] _vti_cnf/ 23-Sep-2004 23:23 -
[TXT] _vti_inf.html 23-Sep-2004 23:23 2k
[DIR] _vti_log/ 23-Sep-2004 23:23 -
[DIR] _vti_pvt/ 23-Sep-2004 23:23 -
[DIR] _vti_txt/


I googled but can't seem to figure out how to hide these folders without making changes to the rest of my site.

So if anyone could help me out with what to put in my .htaccess file I would greatly appreciate it, Thanks.

 
I think those folders have something to do with FrontPage?

Do you have FrontPage support enabled?

Which web host?

I don't use FrontPage and to the best of my knowledge I never set anything up for it.

I use Quadrahost.

:bowdown: I did some searching in the control panel and although frontpage was never installed those files were associated I did frontpage cleanup and it removed them. Thanks! 🙂
 
Because I did do some searching since it was somewhat interesting:
<Files _private>
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</Files>

Of course, no one will be able to find this if they do a search for htaccess in the proper forum...

Oh, and I didn't test it, since it would be wrong for me to test it with work machines. 😛

EDIT: Close quote.
