Deny Directory Browsing on IIS FTP Site

I have a 6.0 IIS FTP site and I want to deny directory browsing on specific sub folders for anonymous access.  I can't seem to get it to work the way I expect (anonymous still can view the files and sub folders).  A step-by-step instruction on this would be appreciated.

Your best bet would be to recreate your FTP site with Isolate Users Mode.  Please check this link for instruction on how to do it.

Actually, I was able to get it to accept the permissions by setting anonymous (IUSR_servername) to have only read and execute.  Directory Browsing is a special permission and I was able to exclude that.  Isolate Users Mode would have only allowed users to be jailed, it appears.
Actually, Isolate Users Mode allows you to by user or group of use select the specific areas to which the users have access.

I have a similar need, but referred to authenticated users:

I need to deny browse directory listing to one entire ftp site (this site have more than one folders inside).
