: Is there a way to browse a directory without having "Everyone" have the
: permission to list the directory?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Only the user context that is attempting to list the directory contents
needs the "List Folder Contents" permission. It will also need "Bypass
Traverse Checking" if you do not want permissions to be checked on every
folder above the folder you are attempting to enumerate.
