If you want to protect the included files from being accessed directly,
move them outside of the webroot structure.

The web server can only "serve" files inside it's directory structure,
but a php include can access any file according to file system access
constraints, so you can even include a file from a directory on another
computer as long as you specify the pathname correctly.

I always put files that include things like database access usernames and
passwords outside of the webroot, that way no one can request
"db_passwords.php" and get the mysql password and user that php is using.
