You can always add more .htaccess files in more directories, or edit the
one that's there.

No. It would only invalidate any "saved" logins or passwords from the old
realm being managed by the browser.
Different realm == different login/credentials needed.

That's your ISP being silly, not PHP 4.3.10 "changing"
That said, HTTP Authentication WILL NOT WORK with CGI.
It is disabled in PHP source because, because your password would be
transmitted insecurely from Apache to PHP, and the PHP Team is not willing
to do that for obvious reasons.
Get your host to go back to PHP as Module, or switch to a form login.
