hmmmm... I can still hotlink with a URL like this:

http://www.dangpow.com/~ejl/TESTING-...berankings.com


but this is blocked:

http://www.dangpow.com/~ejl/TESTING-ONLY.html

You need to drop those wildcards that come before the hostname to stop it.

Doh! Spoke too soon. They're back...

I got a runtime error when trying your nasty link, but I had to click OK to whether I wanted to debug it.

I load task manager on startup and anything wanky goes on I just end IE.

I'm really glad I'm in FireFox now though.

PS- Ramster, I forgot to clewar my cache which is why the dannicash image loaded on my system. So, ignore my stupid reply. :D

That nasty link was where I sent hotlinkers at one time, a long time ago. Back in the Windows98 days I was told it was a real killer. Times change.

Plugged? That's the same htaccess file that's been on that domain for a year or more.

Doesnt look plugged to me.. I still see baberankings pics on his site?

Did you clear your cache unlike I did a few posts up? ;)

True True... working now..

FUCK CANDID HOSTING.

They want me to mail them (yes snail mail) info against copywrite infringement. They do not seem to care that this guy is hotlinking every photo on that page from someone else's server.

Fuck him:

What? The owner has posted here before.

That's plain fucked up. Candid Hosting is just fine with their client's stealing other people's bandwidth and HD resources.

Snail mail them? What the fuck for?

Their response is based on copyright. They do not care what this guy is doing.

THEY OUTLINED THE LAW THEN CLOSED WITH THIS:

If you wish to send another letter in the prescribed format and
containing the information
required under the DMCA, we will address the matter at that time.

I hate hotlinkers..

PS: My host is up. It's national-net. They rock.

They may rock, but they never replied to my virtual account requests. |pissed|

Guess they only want dedicated accounts, which is fine.

It doesn't work with my htaccess.

Wow!

I can see when there's some question and it's not obvious that the content is stolen but when the links are there or domains are on the images it's pretty cut and dry.

Candid hosting purchases advertising on a number of webmaster boards. Posting the responce to a few would probably get you a fast resolution. If it doesn't then maybe a few webmasters looking for nerw hosting would appreciate your comments :)

Hey Ramster,
The reason, as far as I can tell, that the wanker was getting around your htaccess is because of the * infront of your domain name. Basically the way your RewriteCond is being interpreted is that ANY referer that begins with "http://" and contains "baberankings.com" is accepted.
It should be like this:
p.s. - that was a pretty shitty response you got from Candid.

Well look at that you are right! Thanks Venturi. :)

Too bad too as I liked the image I was popping up to his surfers. I think I'll keep that there for a few more hours.

Ooops, that's a bad code. Without the * NO images load at all and even from my own pages clicking the big images redirects to the htaccess specified 404 page.

Jeezy Chreezy! Didn't anybody read where I retracted my statement?

Honestly, when I checked it locally(from my desktop), the images were missing. Then I went to the shithead's site and the images loaded. Checked again locally and the images loaded again.

I know Useless Warrior. ;)
I just didn't want people thinking I'm stupid enough being in biz this long to not have an htaccess file on my server and domains. LOL

Double check for typos in your rules, or paste the rules again and we'll double check it for you. :)

Ramster without the wild card in front of your domain you have to list every possibility.

Like the way that I do it.
