When I browse to my .htaccess file:

http://members.mysite.com/.htaccess

Explorer asks me if I would like to open or download it, and then lets me?! Obvioulsy thus exposing the location of the password file.

Its CHMOD to 644 and I got the following code in it:

<Files .*>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>

How do I stop this from happening????
