I have a folder on my web server and I want to display the contents
publicly as a directory of files. I have FancyIndexing enabled, and my
long filenames are displaying correctly, but I would like to spruce up
the directory and have it display in the default IE webpage font
instead of the plain text font. I might also like to get rid of or
change the icons. How can I do this? Running on Apache 1.3.31. Thanks.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_autoindex.html
tells the whole story.

More specifically:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_autoindex.html#head ername
shows how to use your own preamble.
Specify an appropriate stylesheet for the elements used
in a directory listing and you're done.

You can change the icons by providing other ones in the
/icons/ directory, or specifying your own. Read
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_autoindex.html#addi con
for details.

There are several sites which offer free icons the web.
