 * Hi, I have recenlty noticed that the cbdb7_uploads folder contents can be accessed
   by anyone.
   I can change the folder permissions but thought that it might stop
   your plugin from working.Would it be possible for me to stop access from anyone
   who is not logged in to the site and still allow the plugin to work?Thank youIan

 * Deactivate the plugin and activate it again. Then it will add index.php file 
   in cbdb7_uploads folder. User can not get the file name. It is remaining file
   with random string.
