Password protect your Admin CP

[New Joe]

I did this a few years ago, but then for some reason took it away

I want to do it again but I can't find my old posts on how i did it.
Can someone give me a quick easy guide to add the username and password for the Admin cp.
I remember it was to do with htaccess file

Yeah I kinda like that version, I know there are others, but that version is the one I prefer.
