Warning: Installation directory exists at:

Hi...

Just installed Zen Cart at Go-Daddy and it seems all went well. I pulled up my page on the web and it looks fine, but there's a notice in red at the top of the page that says:

Warning: Installation directory exists at: (location given)\html\zencart\zc_install. Please remove this directory for security reasons.

What's up with that?

Help!

Thanks

Re: Warning: Installation directory exists at:

If a hacker got into your server, having the zc_install files accessible would increase the damage they could do to your site, including wiping out your database.
