Can someone point me to a resource that explains the File Manager with regard to permissions? I see under the Folders: dropdown list I can select:

Standard - File System
Secure - File System
Secure - Database

What do these mean?
I am trying to make sure I can secure some folders to only certain groups - I dont want someone passing out the URL to a file and getting it. Can you point me to what these three options actually do for me?

Thanks

files in standard folders can be accessed using fully qualified URL.
Files in secured folders (either in file sytem or database) can be accessed only vai LinkClick.aspx, which validates users' permissions.
