I still haven't found a solution so I'm looking into possible alternatives. As shown in the above thread, someone recommended using eCryptfs or an encfs directory.

ALSO, I would a prefer a solution that would still allow me to backup this folder using rsync. I like to keep and up-to-date backup of my entire flash drive by syncing it to another flash drive using rsync.

So to protect my self I was wondering if using .htaccess restriction would be enough?
Code:
########## Begin - Rewrite rules to block out some common exploits # RewriteEngine on Options +FollowSymLinks
[code]....
But I do think that these rewrite string are more specificity write to protect oScommerce site. how to protect my web site from such attach and similar?
