This is the way I am going. I will have about 30 people downloading it, but I want it to remain semi-private, because some people do know the domain and where some files are located, and plus it isn't that hard to search. So a password will keep those who I don't want to access it out, unless someone leeches it. Anyways it will be up for 24hrs, I just need to put a password on the folder.
Where is the htaccess?

Ok I found how to do that... but what does this mean?
Protected Resource Name (will display in browser's password mask):

Also, if I set up several users with their own passwords, will I be able to see how many times that user has accessed the download?
