Popup loads wp-admin/admin-ajax.php … problem with htaccess protections

    Hi everyone,
    I have protected my wp-admin directory with htaccess/htpasswd. So far so good. But as soon as Popup Maker is activated I get asked for that password even when looking at the site on the frontend.

    I looked at the code and saw that the plugin seems to be loading admin-ajax.php from the directory wp-admin and THAT brings up the password protection. 

    <script type='text/javascript'>
/* <![CDATA[ */
var pum_vars = {"ajaxurl":"http:\/\/www.xxxxx.de\/site\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php","default_theme":"1330"};
var ajaxurl = "http:\/\/www.xxxxx.de\/site\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php";
var popmake_default_theme = "1330";
/* ]]> */
</script>

    Is there any way to have both, the great popup plugin and the password protection to the wp-admin directory?

    Thank you very much. Love the plugin
    Anja
