1 and 1 hosting - 403 forbidden error :s

[bikhs]

Hey all

Am new to prestashop and am attempting to install to a 1 and 1 hosted server. The issue I have is a:

Error 403 - Forbidden
You tried to access a document for which you don't have privileges.

URL www.mysite.net/prestashop/install

There is another main website already running in the root so have dropped the prestashop into a seperate directory on the root.

Have loaded prestashop v1.3.7.0 to the server and have the following code added to the root directory of the site in a .htaccess file: (is the .htaccess file mean to be in the prestashop folder or the root of the server??)

P.S - I got the following code below from the forum for 1 and 1 hosting specific problems: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/viewthread/640/installing_prestashop/1_amp1_hosting_service__specific_problems

# Catch 404 errors
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

Now for a 1 and 1 hosting, is this .htaccess file actually correct? Where am I going wrong? Am fairly new to php too so not sure where I am going wrong. I have also changed the permissions on the prestashop folder to 777 read/write/exec all and to the install folder but no joy.

Any help will be great from anyone who may have had a similar issue???

Thank you in advance
