MySpace are bandwidth thiefs...
 

that fucking website gets through my hotlink protection script, i dont understand :(, want them out

its their users not the site, what u using to protect?

i know its the users... i'm using that crappy software thats built into cpanel

.htaccess takes care of it for me :thumbsup

thats what this script does it creates a .htaccess file and you select which sites you want to allow images to be seen from and which not, the fucking myspace shit somehow gets around it. real fucking amazing....

and some FUSKER sites get around it too...

Then you don't have a proper formatted htaccess (unless they are hotlinking movies).

im pretty sure its good, show me what a proper formatted htaccess looks like, and no its not movies its jpegs...

sixxxthsense, try this if you haven't already.

block
http://domain.com and http://www.domain.com

If you leave the www out they will get through. :upsidedow

if the .htaccess that that script creates doesn't work, simply create your own

when uploading your .htacces file make sure you are in Ascii mode otherwise it might not work

btw some dude hotlinks one of my sites too, and it's been a while now I'm too lazy to do something about it since he doesn't really burn much bandwith, but I think some day I'll change that pic to Goatse, I'm sure it'll look good on his MySpace profile page

Someone should set up, a place where all the myspacers hot link!!! then shut it down so they loose everything

i'll try it, thanks

im sure the .htaccess is working, its blocking other sites, jsut MySpace and one Fusker site is getting through somehow

yeah cuz they advertise sell cam shit with my hotlinked fucking pictures and shit. grrrr

Instead of blocking them, take advantage of the free advertising

free and easy

Why doesnt you start hotlinking myspace pics

I've had to block them too sometime last year. A number of different people were hotlinking my celebrity site.

Nothing like looking at your daily stats, and seeing your bandwidth shot to the moon.

:disgust

nice tool, thanks.

just make note of the jpg they are hotlinking rename it and change your script to reflect the new name. then upload the goatse or ******* image and name it the file that was hotlinked.

you're right..

What kind of image are they hotlinking, models or just some graphic?

lol and advertise which sponsor with theM? :1orglaugh

thanks, the thing is i banned their domain and all but they still somehow hotlink :( maybe im missing something

I'll try that also :)

Yep, some of the users are butt plugs

that's bad

I have bookmarked a free hta access tool for webmasters on my http://www.meancash.com site.

Works great for me.

Forget the htaccess generator that comes with WHM/Cpanel. It's good for the very basics, but you need a lot more to do it right.

Here's a thread I started a long time ago about htaccess - should help out a lot:

Basically if you're not able to block them using your .htaccess for any reason such as error setting it up, or getting through the protection somehow what you need to do is hire someone to get this cleared up if it's that bothersome.
