Two very good resources on how to correctly implement security for anonymous users on MOSS internet facing websites:

- A guide on Microsoft Technet: Plan security for an external anonymous access environment (Office SharePoint Server) (http://technet2.microsoft.com/Office/en-us/library/f507f5d6-4c9d-4f98-909f-069c53b9a3f61033.mspx?mfr=true)

- A comment with a link to a very good post by Steven Tapping: Restricting Document Library Browsing for SharePoint 2007 Anonymous Users.
Steven gives a step by step overview on how you can correctly enable read access to library items without giving anonymous users the permission to browse the library (http://blogs.vertigo.com/personal/steventap/Blog/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=22).
