Hi XAM,
just went through your post on security checking.I hv one dout in my mind since quite a few days now.
How to stop users from browsing other directories through browser such as http://tracker/pic/ and all the other directories which can be browsed by the user even without registering or logging in and even with logging in. As it can easly be used to steal style sheet and other scripts which are loacted in tht directory.Almost all tracker allow this kind of directory browsing.Pls guide me hw to avoid this.

THANK YOU!

There are 2 ways to do:
1) via httpd.conf
CODE:
<Directory />
    Options -Indexes
</Directory>


3) with a .htaccess file
CODE:
Options -Indexes
