Is there a way of listing files for a directory if it contains index.html?

On my server (over which I have little control), directories are listed by default, so for mysite.com/images
I get:
Index of /images
Parent Directory
BirdsAreHere.png
CanYouSpot-AdBlank.jpg
etc. Is putting an index.html in that directory enough to prevent people listing the files, or is there still a way of getting at that list? Is it the same for my web root directory (mysite.com
)?
