I believe that shares are intended to be visible.  The following is a direct
quote from the info included with the webserver docs:

---------
To restrict access to a folder

   1.In My Computer, right-click the folder you want to restrict access to,
and then click Sharing.
   2.Click Shared As, and then click Web Sharing.
   3.Select the Share Folder For HTTP check box.
---------

et cetera...
