Installation leaves folders accessible

ok I’ve just found this from here
Make sure when you’re installing to set the file permissions to 0644 (or 0664 if you need group write). There is nothing you’re uploading to a Symphony install that should require execute bits to be set (0755/0775).
Actually, after all the hoo-ha about the hacks late last year, why does the default installer still try to set the execute bit on files? Baaaaad…
For the beginners out there, I’ve added the following to .htaccess in root.
Options All -Indexes RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / Order Deny,allow allow from ***.***.***.*** Deny from all

Hi guys, I followed the installation instructions including setting the permissions yet I can gain access to all the folders eg .
Is this normal for an installation? Does my .htaccess in the root need adjusting? Or have I missed a step during installation? thanks
