    Hello Alex, after installing amember, I thought of a way to protect my files and directories, since am not that good in PHP, I deviced my own method of protection which I will like to confirm if it's good enough to serve it's security purpose.

    1. I had embeded an index.htm file in every directory under the amember/
    2. I had used a script to enforce every protected pages in my site to take callers back to http://mysite/amember/signup.php.

    I deviced this method after installing amember/ on completing the paypal payment installation, I discovered that my thought to be protectedpages are not automatically protected.

    So it's like my web visitors could type in http://www.mywebsite.net/classroom/view.avi. and have a free service. And this is the same page and directory Payapal will refer my visitors to after payment.

    and since I'm not good at the PHP coding I had done this. Using javascript, from experience do you think there can still be a loophole ?

    Regards
