Make sure your host has the proper permissions set.

If the site can be accessed via HTTP there is no way to prevent
anybody from accessing and downloading pages or the entire site
for that matter. To suggest otherwise is simply untrue.

Google: "download website" and see for yourself what the
real facts are.

That is only true if the site is composed of all static HTML. If the site
has server-side software (ASP, CF, PHP, etc), and proper security, only the
HTML code generated by the server-side software can be downloaded, not the
scripting or executable software that generates the HTML.

I don't even know why I bother attempting to dispel the misinformation
as there's nothing in it for me, the people that ask these questions
do not even stay involved.

Trying to help has become a big pain in the @ss. I had a moment of
weakness and thought I cared so bye...

As I replied to Tom Pepper these discussions get to be a big waste
of time arguing every nuance and technicality.

Yes, its correct that source code on the server can be protected
if the server has been correctly secured. Yes, its correct that once
page(s) are requested via HTTP any content that page contains
can not be protected from being 'downloaded' i.e. saved to disk
and reused by somebody.

Well thanks for all your help folks and I've been
visiting this site on and off for a year. I reply when I
can and ask what I need. So sounds like nothing is
protected.

Well as others stated your server-side script source code can be
protected if the host has configured your web on the server correctly
but everything else that is sent to the browser can not be protected.

Did you Google: "download website" as I suggested? There is a lot
to be learned by reading the articles.
