Drupal 4.7.x

Searching for some pathauto analogs. This module doesn't fit my needs, 'cos its only adding tons of pa aliases. Maybe there are some implementation of true auto path module - I mean, smth user/1 changed to user/root, user/1/edit changed to user/root/edit and so on.

Although the content of the files folder is not shown by default (according to the settings of my ISP) I am pretty sure some evil users are able to hack this.
Finally - the content is also visible for bad-behaving search engines which don't care about 'robots.txt' settings.

Does anybody know if (and how) it is possible to grant Drupal users access to the files folder secured by htaccess ?
Or is there another way to limit access to the files folder ?

If I have a certain node type defined by some module and I want to extend the functionality of this node type, is it possible to create a "sub-module" so that I don't have to copy all the code (blabla hundreds of reasons why you don't like to do this...)?

I would think so, because all nodes are based on node and (can) overwrite node_hook (well, this is at least my perception as a real drupal noob), but I don't seem to find any documentation on how to do this.

Hello!

I do a work of end of studies. I do a description of differents files. I have the other files but I don't have a description of the misc file and script file.

Can you help me?

When user edits his profile, whether he types in new password or leaves the password fields blunk, Drupal changes the password in db for smth that encrypted looks like:
1a1dc91c907325c69271ddf0c944bc72

So user cant relogin ufter editing profile until password is manually fixed in db.
Why does this happen.
