              the best thing to do is the nice thing. you won't get anywhere by fucking with potential customers.

              Use a jpg of a super hot girl and some text that says:

              "We're truly sorry, but we just can't spare the bandwidth to link you right now.
              There's a good chance the file you're looking for is still on our website: www.myst.com thanks."

                  If hotlinkers were making you money you wouldn't be posting about this now would you?

                          if i were u i'd send an email telling them to stop or your tell their mom's.
                          that should do the trick

                                      Direct them straight to a sponsor signup page or tour or redirect them to the homepage of your site and keep the traffic.

                                          installing toolbars would be bad?
                                          what about per-email sponsors?

                                          per-signup will not work, these assholes dont buy shit, they get my movies from forums posting hundreds of these
