When this feature is turned on, a pop-up will appear every time a person attempts to open the folder in question or clicks on a direct link which goes a few levels deeper, so login info shall be required for www.domain.com/folder/image.jpg when you have secured the domain.com folder. If the details aren't valid, a “403 Forbidden” message shall appear and there's no method of getting around this restriction, so you can be positive that no one shall be able access the secured content. The feature may be helpful in numerous cases - if only a number of people need to be able to see certain files, if you are creating an Internet site and you don't want people to see it before it is completed, and so forth.
