Not exactly. Browsers go to webpages which are licensed to present those pictures. Software like this downloads the image and presents it. They have no license to do so, therefore it is illegal, surely?

Also. You can prevent these programs from surfing your galleries using htaccess. Something to do with the http agent. Someone started a thread on GFY recently with a huge list. I can't be arsed finding it.
