    2423the irony is that a plugin is suggested to fix problem while advising to disable all plugins to fix problem. :-) however, I have a stripped down site that I always use to test first, Media availability problem doesn't exist after changing "read" to "manage_options", so if someone decides to access directory, only thing that will be shown: Site Name and Edit Profile options.
