We used to do this but it was only for internal pages.
But here are some links you may find useful and the script to make a simple password protected page.

<script language="javascript">
<!--
/*Change the usename,password and the page to redirect the user to to suit your own site*/
function login(form)
{
if (form.user.value=="steve" && form.password.value=="password")
{
location="encrypt1.htm"
}
else {
alert("Invalid username or Password")
}
}
//-->
</script>

If you look into dreamweaver help, there is a way to password protect folders, but I don’t think that is what you want.
You can password protect spreadsheets and other files to restrict access to them, but as you don’t mention what type of file you want to password protect, I’m guessing it isn’t any of those.
If you can give more information about the files we could possible help with a solution.
