Description of my issue:
Hi Nicholas
I recently had my site hacked, and I eneded up seeking some professional help cleaning it up.
Part of the cleanup process incluced tupdaating from Admin Tools to Admin Tools Pro (which I have now paid for!). I am still trying to work out some of the things that were done (yes, I know!, but no names no pack drill as they say).
One of the consequences is that I now have an addtional password procedure when I access the admin pages. I suspect that this has been done using the Password-protect Adminitstrator tool, but as I am not certain I don't want to risk making any changes without being sure.
When I first access the admin area I get a popup window headed 'Authentication Required' and "User Names and password are being requested by http://xxxxxxx. The site says Restircted Area".
Does this appear to be part of the Admin Tools pack, or might it be something different?
