This document seems to explain most of the .htaccess functionality and ap=
paers=20
to have been written using windows directory paths:

http://apache-server.com/tutorials/ATusing-htaccess.html

This document has information about your password stuff, you should look =
it=20
over, unfortunatly you will have to make due with it being directed at a =
*NIX=20
install:

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

This page has most of the stuff you need to note in a windows install:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/windows.html

As for your path problem (4) I belive your httpd.conf has your root web=20
direcotry referenced to the *NIX path rather then the Windows path, easie=
st=20
way to fix it would be to perform a search and then replace the line with=
 the=20
proper string.

Hope you find that helpful,
Nick
