I downloaded a trial version of wam and added the first user, and uploaded to site. worked perfectly, then I added a second user and uploaded to site, and the login authentication box will not accept username and password of the second user. I dont want to buy this thing if it is all buggy still.

Hiya Scott,
Are you sure you have the files/folders checked on the WAM for that person? Go into the program and highlight that person's name and see if anything is checked or added to the bottom area where it shows the files/folders that person should have access to. Sometimes it looks like we did it, but we didn't hehe, I've done it a couple times now

Yes files and folders are checked for the person. Also, it looks like google chrome bypasses the protection alltogether. IE and firefox require a username and password, Google chrome doesnt

It is impossible for a browser to bypass .htaccess as it is the Web server itself that prevents it. No browser can circumvent that. The only way you can gain access is by authenticating.

Well feel free to try for yourself. I cleared my cache, went to wolverines test site in chrome and it went right in no password box or nothing

OK, I was wrong here, This was an issue with chrome pre caching the site, once I cleaned everything with CCleaner and went back to these directories, it did prompt me for a login.
