Like button

Hi, I have a Web site that is not a public site. Access is via a username and password.  I do not use a login with Facebook as I want to restrict users to a small group of friends. I added the like button, but when I clicked it I got a 403 error, perhaps the application could not access the url due to requiring a password for a user name. If I dispence with the user name and password requirement, the like button is functioning as expected.
Is there a way around this.
Thank you
Ronit
