Hi
i discovered that all users can login into my website through (http://www.mydomain/com/wp-content) and download some pics to their sites
is there anyway to lock that thing OFF ?
and one morething please
in that folder (wp-content) i have many pics and i want to make them in sub-folders (lets say each month has its folder)
it will work normaly with my site ?
Thanks.

May be you can change the chmod ?

Open notepad.
Type "No thanks !"
Save as 'index.html'
Upload into wp-content
That should sort the problem.
Your host should also offer a way to prevent directory listing when an index file is not present.

Just put the same index.html in each.
Mail your support and ask them to close that hole too.

Yeah, you should be able to set up a "no hotlinking, no downloads" thing through your host's cPanel or whatever you have.
Good luck - I'll bet your bandwidth use will drop when the holes get plugged!
