A nice trick I've found is to give the database an ASP extension (e.g Snitz_Forums_2000.asp) You can't download the file, and the ASP engine will stop trying to parse the page after a few bytes. Tested on Brinkster.<

Not all servers stop, some will merrily display the entire db source in the browser. If you've looked at an MDB with notepad, you know a lot of db content is easily visible.
