This is a classic FTP security question. Option C is the way to go, no doubt about it. Who needs to see those file names anyway?

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Option E sounds kind of interesting - no other directories in the upload folder? That's a new one to me!

I'd go with option B. Denying read access to the directory should hide the file names from anonymous FTP users.

Yes, that makes sense. It's important to restrict access to prevent unauthorized users from viewing sensitive information.

Option C seems the most logical choice to prevent anonymous FTP users from listing uploaded file names. Removing both read and execute permissions would do the trick.
