Played with the above script and it's nice but for a password protected members area we would also need to use sessions so members can just login once. If I'm not mistaken that script generates a password prompt for every page that it protects.
Just to be clear: I'm suggesting that a seperate authentication system be created that uses VB's database. It would require it's own registration process (just the required fields of current registration in VB) and login. Also would need to use sessions once members were logged in.
I'm surprised that no one has done this yet. Most of the decent member authentication scripts out there range from 90-200 bucks. If people are willing to pay that much, I would think that this would be a very popular addon to VB. I know I'd pay for it!
