Hello

I was using blamestella.com to check latency of my website.
And it came showing directly possible files that you dont want users to see.

Below you can see the same thing for the current joomlart.com webpage.

Why is that? and how can be solved?

The file path that service is showing are the requested objects (css / images / js) by browser aka HTTP requests. Now when you make request you need to have a path too right? You can also see these images and their path in your site page source. Its normal and nothing to worry about.

All the folders in Joomla have a blank index.html, which does not allow directory listing (I read somewhere that this is soon to change and directory listing will not be allowed by default).

For checking site performance you can use http://gtmetrix.com/ OR http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/
