If you are worried with snoopers viewing your web files, then you should definitely use DirProtect. As the name implies, this dead-simple tool protects your web directories by generating .htaccess and .htpassword files. All you need to do is add the web directory that you want to have protected, set username and password for them, and then upload the generated files to that directory on the your server.

Once the generated files are uploaded to your server, anyone who wants to tries to access the protected directory will be asked for a username and password that you set-up.

If you liked this tool you can also check a similar application called htaccessEditor and also read earlier MakeUseOf article on how to create and edit the .htaccess file for your website.
