Site Security htaccess message

Here is what I get:


Site security

Your site is not running in a virtual host mode, this is insecure. It is recommended to run Exponential in virtual host mode. If you do not have the possibility to use virtual host mode, you should follow the instructions below about how to install an .htaccess file. The .htaccess file tells the web server to restrict the access to certain files.

If you have shell access, you can run the following commands.

cd /hsphere/local/home/dante22e/givespamachance.com/spamville
cp .htaccess_root .htaccess

If you do not have shell access, you will have to copy the file using an FTP client or ask your hosting provider to do this for you.

help.

My web hosting service is useless and I can't understand what to do. I have WebShell editor to play with the files/folders.
