That depends on what you're interested in doing. Personally, I prefer using
Windows ACLs to manage access, since I have to do that anyway in many cases.
I like having the ability to easily tie into Windows authentication in many
cases as well. Other times, I might find .htaccess files easier to deal
with.

It's worth mentioning that there is a free third-party product that lets you
use .htaccess files with IIS, if you feel you must:
