How do I get rid of a .htaccess file?

[Jonny69]

Someone was snooping about in my webspace last week and it was mentioned that I should put on a .htaccess file to disable browsing of my folders. Well I wasn't too bothered about any looking to be honest but out of curiosity I made a .htaccess and uploaded it. It has disabled browsing but obviously now I can't browse my own files easily!

I use FireFTP as my FTP uploader but it doesn't show any trace of the .htaccess file. How do I get rid of it?

Hey it worked! Cheers.

So I take it .htaccess is more of a hidden setting than 'file' as such.

Edit: ah right, everything is clear now. Thanks chaps
