---- /folder/ and /folder = duplicate content?

Any ideas why Google would index folder-root files twice, both with and without the trailing slash? When searching for a specific text string, both of the variations below appear on the same SERPS:

www.example.com/folder/
www.example.com/folder

Now, any ideas on how to get Google to only recognize one of the pages? The pages went from First to Worst around the time this bug surfaced...
