I hope to show you how to do this using Google Search
First of all, what’s an unprotected web directory? It’s one that does not have an “index” file created for it–index.htm, index.html, index.php or some other more rarely used file types. If you try to access a non-password controlled directory that does not have an index file, the system will build a listing of files that are within the directory. If you get that, you can then click on the files and run them with a viewer or player or even download them.
You know the ones I'm talking about right?

Directories like these will have all kinds of files. Things like pictures, music, video files, documents, you name it.
here are the codes you use
1. [-inurl(html|htm|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size]
This is the query that will give you a search results page of unprotected directories
But those are too many...
Here's how to narrow it down to file formats of your choice...
-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(wmv|avi)
This will only look for wmv and avi video files. You can easily alter it if you don’t want “wmv” or “avi” or if you want “mpg” instead. You get the idea.
-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(jpg|gif)
This will only look for jpg and gif files. Again, you can alter the file formats to suit yourself.
-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(wma|mp3)
This will only look for wma and mp3 music files. Again you can easily change the file formats to suit yourself.
Just put the search string you need into the search engine box. Then hit the ‘enter’ button and your results will come up. I guarantee you’ll be hooked for ages trying to see what you can find!
These searches are great because the directories can be easily downloaded without much hassle using various batch downloading tools...
I use it quite a lot actually...
The video below gives a slightly different search string but definitely uses the same ideas...
