What's the best way to stop site visitors seeing the contents of a folder?
I have a list of documents here: www.example.com/documents

I want to key the documents folder in the public_html / htdocs folder (not above it). However, I don't want people to be able to navigate to www.example.com/documents or for Google to index the content. But I still need to use links to the documents across the site (mainly within a logged in area).

Any suggestions?
