you mean like a password?
www.colostate.edu/~ric/htpass.html
protect the whole of admin with a password
also you could make it so that only a certain IP can access, or country (i.e. yours)

www.techiecorner.com/96/limit-certain-ip...bsite-with-htaccess/
for access by IP,
To block a country you need the countries ip adresses.
You can get them for example here:
ip-to-country.webhosting.info/node/view/6
Then you need to put this ip's in the htaccess file like this:
Code:
order allow,deny
deny from 127.0.0.1
deny from 127.0.0.2
deny from 127.0.0.3
allow from all
But its a lot of work, and the IP's are changing constantly..
