Re: How do I stop people browsing in my webspace directories?
Yes, the index page in every directory is about the only solution - it can be either:
A blank page, a "no browsing my files" page, an "under construction" page, a mock-up of a 404 page ... I Like the idea of a fake "Index of" page.

More usefully, it could also be a refresh to your real index...

For kicking someone from somewhere you don't want them, a delay of 0 is probably appropriate
