that code above will stop most site ripper programs from accessing your site

crockett

They are using it to D/L your website.

hell, ya, it grabs everything it finds

another one (Fisker, Fusker?) burnt few hundred $$ worth of bandwith in 3 days from one of my sites

Toonlogos

Thanks! I guess I wont be accidentally blocking off search engines or something with that?

Jace

nope, if you are nervous you can check each one by hand, but it will only block site rippers

Markul

This may display my ignorance, but does that code go into robots.txt?

rowan

The code goes into .htaccess in your root web directory.

Toonlogos

Thans a lot for sharing, Jace!

Markul

Thanks man!

gideongallery

if i remember correctly httrack is open source and so is mozila so you could look for the refer ide i both and just switch them

so mozilla reports that it is httrack and vice versa

or you could use the cloaking settings in httrack and it would report that it is mozilla

Yup, most of the stuff in that list can easily be configured to use a different id string.

I guess it still works to keep random joe surfer out, but that's about all.

Toonlogos

So theres no way to really stop the leeching?

Diligent

Well, a bullet would but... how feasible is that?
