Hoping someone can help me out here, I've been fiddling with this for the better part of the week but I can't seem to figure it out.
I'm trying to password protect a directory on my home page using .htaccess and .htpasswd.
The problem that I'm having is I am getting an Error 403 Forbidden page when I try to access the particular page.
Here is the link to the page.
http://home.cogeco.ca/~jmarshall24/
Here is my .htaccess file
AuthUserFile /path/to/my/.htpasswd
AuthName "Password Protected Area"
AuthType Basic
Options -Indexes
<limit GET POST>
require valid-user
</limit>

I have placed the .htaccess file within a directory under my root that I would like to restrict access to. I'm just getting an error? Any help would be appreciated.

What directory do you have the .htaccess file in? It doesn't appear to be in the one in the link you gave.

Try changing it to options +Indexes and see what happens.
