thx for the replies friends, i'll have to investigate a bit further to see if i am just seeing referers or if indeed they are somehow getting the images to load... just so i'm clear though, the above mentioned .htaccess lines should be in the root folder of the site only, or also in the folders that contain the pics themselves? my members area has its own .htaccess of course but am unclear whether i only need .htaccess in the site root folder or if it should also be in place w/in the folders that contain the pics themselves that are at risk of hotlinking?
on a side note, someone mentioned to me that i should buy a license for cPanel and rely upon its hotlinking protection? is this an option as well, does cPanel have good protection for hotlinking included that is effective? thx again for all the input friends..!
