Subject: Added .htaccess files for shadow/, data/, and /. I added related
 information to the Bugzilla Guide, and tacked in a couple of last-minute
 additions.  Also fixed the annoying "Tip: HINT:" thing.

+	    The index.html page doesn't show the footer.  It's really annoying to have
+	    to go to the querypage just to check my "my bugs" link.  How do I get a footer
+	    on static HTML pages?

+Good point.  Yeah, easy enough to do, that it shouldn't be a big deal for
+someone to take it on if they want it.  FAQ is a good place for it.
