Hi, I'm trying to install Protector 3.1, but I've just figured out that my host doesn't allow access to any folder other then public_html. Does that mean I'm sorta screwed here?

Thanks.

Definitely NOT!!

Make a new folder in your public_html folder and give it any name you like - the more obscure the better. Set this new folder to be your xoops_trust_path and away you go!

just create a file with the name .htaccess inside that folder and write these words in it:
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from none

if you want to learn more about that:
