Important security issued


Hi! i'm a newbie and hope i'm not posting a post already made but i didn't found this question.
i have an unix server [don't know what version i think it's FreeBSD ]

http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/9442/hostgy9.th.jpg

and i use WS_FTP to upload the files to my server.. but i have a big problem

all my files are encrypted with some problems but when people use getrigh browser or some kind off program to acess my server instead of a normal browser it appears the list of files i have upload and they can download them
and when i set password for images etc it's all safe, but people can't acess parts of the site without password...

i want to know if there's some way of protect my file without interfering with the normal browser acess. thanks !

how can i explain

i'd like to know if it's possible to hide the files that are in one server. i mean that people could see all the site in firefox and internet explorer, but when they acess the site through getright browser or some other kind of not graphical browser they won't get acess to the files i mean, it's so easy do download all the files in the server when they are online
and i just don't want some guy to steal my site and my scripts

that's just possible in php? please give me some advice
thanks

If someone knows the link of the images then he can download them. You can't do something about that.

What's the problem with source code? The output is always html. I think there are programs that you can encrypt the html but why you care?

I am confused as well. I have an inkling of what might be wrong but the information provided by the OP is muddled enough that it would take another round of posts just to sort out the details.

If the OP would just slow down, not try to talk technical, but present the problem from a business or user's perspective, we could get to the bottom of this without playing 20 questions or going off on wild goose chases.
