    Default username/password protection

    i have used the script from DD for Encrypted Password script- By Rob Heslop.
    problem is, a portion of my users cannot login because IE does not accept running scripts. here is the message:

    TO HELP PROTECT YOUR SECURITY, INTERNET EXPLORER HAS RESTRICTED THIS PAGE FROM RUNNING SCRIPTS OR ACTIVE X. CLICK HERE FOR OPTIONS.

    Is there any way to have this script work without this problem or does someone else recommend another username/password script that will not encounter this problem.

    to view my issue, go to http://www.sweepstakes.ca -- username:living password: well

    all thoughts are welcome, as i operate a small portal that offers anything free to canada + usa consumers, and i utilize the username/password script to i can track the number of members, but this script gets me lots of emails saying they cannot log in.

    they probably have their system set to disable all javascript,
    tell them to add your website as a "trusted" site,

    the other option is they will need to enable javascript.

    the only other option is for you to take off the security encryption from the site and make it a public page

    Yet another option would be to use a server side script or use htaccess.

    For htaccess:

    For server side:

    Hope this helps.
