Why do I get a "Directory Listing Denied" or "Forbidden" error?

Generally, this error is caused by not having a default file in a directory. You you need to have a file with one of the following names in a directory to be able to browse to that directory:

default.htm
default.asp
index.html
index.php
index.asp
index.aspx
index.cfm

Generally, files named "Default" or "index", followed by the appropriate extension, will work as the default file.
