Turn off so-called "directory-indexing" in your apache config.

1. Possibility one
------------------
Open your httpd.conf, then look for the apropriate 

<IfModule mod_autoindex.c>

    #
    # FancyIndexing is whether you want fancy directory indexing or standard
    #
    IndexOptions FancyIndexing
...

and change it to

<IfModule mod_autoindex.c>

    #
    # FancyIndexing is whether you want fancy directory indexing or standard
    #
    IndexOptions -FancyIndexing

2. Possibility two
------------------
Disable mod_autoindex in your apache config. The configured "DirectoryIndex"
directive is left untouched from this, as it is part of mod_dir and not
mod_autoindex:

"[...]
The index of a directory can come from one of two sources:

    * A file written by the user, typically called index.html. The 
      DirectoryIndex directive sets the name of this file. This is controlled
      by mod_dir.
    * Otherwise, a listing generated by the server. The other directives 
      control the format of this listing. The AddIcon, AddIconByEncoding and 
      AddIconByType are used to set a list of icons to display for various file 
      types; for each file listed, the first icon listed that matches the file 
      is displayed. These are controlled by mod_autoindex.
[...]"

Yours,

Martin
