Forbidden to browse http://www.mailscanner.info/files/4 - why?

Most people don't allow file browse in webfolders.  I think it's time to
take your tinfoil hat off.

Why is it forbidden to browse http://www.mailscanner.info/files/4 ?
Was the apache configuration changed on purpose at the end of May?  If
so, why?  For an open source project, one would assume there are no
secrets to hide.

Thanks, Rich B

Here's what I get with lynx http://www.mailscanner.info/files/4:

                                                                  403
Forbidden

                                   Forbidden

   You don't have permission to access /files/4/ on this server.

   Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to
   use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
