why does htaccess have "Deny from all" in it?

Downloaded yesterday so using this latest version for some testing and evaluation. Trying to access the inizio.php page but get a Forbidden message. Looking at the htaccess file it looks like "Deny from all" setting causes this. Not mentioned anywhere in the readme that I need to modify the htaccess file as part of the installation procedure. Any suggestions?

The htaccess file is placed in the includes directory, not in the php-residence root directory.

Now I know why htaccess is at root level when it should not be:

When I extract the "php-residence_0.7.0.zip" file onto my Windows box, it extracts all files to the same folder/same level and does not create any sub-folders. Do I have a corrupt zip file?

PS: Just tried it again after re-downloading. On opening with Winzip the "Paths" column looks fine, all different subdirectories are shown. But on completing the unpack, get everything at the same level! I am going to try another zip program.

PS 2: Just tried extracting using Filzip instead of Winzip and get my correct folders now - all is well.

Thanks for the help.
