Blocking Hotlinking
I'm rebuilding my photography website and will be storing many more photographs on there in the future. I would like to prevent hotlinking of these images as this will eat into my bandwidth allocation.
Does anyone know an easy way to do this? Regards, Steve

you will need to write a script which will check who the referrer is and respond accordingly. if it is your site then issue the image - if not then just ignore the request
i work in .asp and the variable is Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER") to send the image to the client then use Response.ContentType = "image/jpeg" Set oStream = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Stream") Response.BinaryWrite oStream.LoadFromFile("d:\domains\yourdomain.com\ww wroot\pathtoimage\image.jpg").Read oStream.Close Set oStream = Nothing hope this helps dotnet version here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306654
