          there are some scripts to stop hotlinking, just do a quick search on google..

          edit, if your running cpanel, then it has the function already in the admin area

                  Change the pics into a banner for your site, you get some free adverts until they find out

                      hopefully your using apache, in which case, google "htaccess rewrite hotlink" and enjoy.

                            Are you using a control panel? If so, you can usually do hotlinking protection through that. Ask your host, they might be able to help too.

                            Good luck!

                                Your host should be able to stop this for you. As for changing the image, if you know what image they are hot linking then just make a new image and reupload using the same file name and your fuck off image will appear instead ;)
