Lockdown -- Try before you buy (Please!)

With the exception of .MAC Lockdown works on almost every web host. Occasionally there are a few hosts that have problem.

before you buy lockdown please do two things:

1. First check your web site for compatibility using my handy test tool here.
   
2. If it passes the test above download a version and try it. The only limitation of Lockdown without a registration code is you can't save your work to a Rapidweaver file.

To try it first download, install it and create a simple web page with only a lockdown page.

Publish the page but don't save it (Rapidweaver will ask to save it, just say no) and then visit it. If it says that Lockdown worked and you get the username/password prompt then you are good to go!

If it asks you to try the alternate instructions then try those and verify it works (again, don't try to save your Rapidweaver file).
