You should make it so if other people leach your bandwidth like that, it shows a picture of horse porn or something...

If you don't see the image, then it's working.

AZ, The idea isn't to use more bandwidth, it's to stop people hot-linking files and images and posting them in site's I've not authorised. You can't even open them directly... that's been blocked too.

He's testing to see if he's setup his .htaccess file to block leechers.

But to clarify the hotlinking rule, there's nothing wrong with hotlinking if it's your own site ;-)

Or if you have the site owners permission.

Hot-linking from hype.it™ or any of it's domains have been blocked. Only 2 sites have permission to hot-link from this domain. :D

Although it is on these forums like we outlined several months ago because of users wanting a rule that there would be no questions about.
