Hello,
I got a bit strange question :p
I got a fotoalbum in a map on my server, now the map is username and password protected however I was wondering if search engines like google are able to cache the images without having to login on the map (htaccess)

If it requires login they can't access it. To be doubly certain simply add a disallow for all bots to that directory in your robots.txt file

The instructions are pretty simple. Put the robots.txt file in the root directory, though. Bots look for this first when spidering

Post count means nothing here.
