    do you have cPanel?

    just create an empty .htaccess file on the web server, make sure it's 777 permissions

    Wordpress will write it for you

    you can create a .htaccess file by opening a new .txt document and saving it as .htaccess, or you can upload a file called htacces.txt via ftp and use your ftp program to re-name the file.
