Password protect IIS

| Hello,
I'm looking around for the best way to password protect directories in
an IIS system programatically. So far my research has turned up this:
http://www.troxo.com/products/iispassword/
Are there other things (preference given to open source) that I should
be looking at?
Thankyou,
Dave

Seems to me the most simple solution is to place your vulnerable files
outside the web root and call them in by script as and when
required/appropriate.

Well, my goal is to give something to clients that they can just
deploy, rather than for a site of my own... It's pretty easy to write
..htaccess/.htpasswd files programatically with Apache, and I was
looking for something similar, rather than a more complicated, involved
(and quite possibly more elegant) solution.
Thankyou,
Dave
