First - that's not a Firewall ;)

Maybe check your forum directories how .htaccess files have been created.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/auth.html

Gives an example on how things are intend to be used and how they should look like.

You may want to contact your host about that, as it looks like you've tried doing it like the way cPanel wants you to.
