If I remember rightly, put this in your .htaccess file:

Options -Indexes

Don't forget to also set:

DirectoryIndex index.html index.php

or whatever you do need.

ok i will try it now...

Thanks, but can u explain what
"Options -Indexes" does?


and "DirectoryIndex index.html index.php" is not for displaying index.php and index.html file as default....

but if i dont have default index.php then how to prevent them?

Thanks for your help
