Well, you can protect the files from direct access by adding in your
..htaccess file:
<FilesMatch "whateveryouwannaprotect">
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</FilesMatch>
Say you wanna protect all the files with the .ext extension. I guess
that'll look like:
<FilesMatch "\.(ext)$">
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</FilesMatch>
Of course, you need the privilege to overwrite those setings.
