Anti-Leech

I need a Anti-Leech script. Not a cgi one, maybesomething that runs off of php and mysql would be nice and fast. Know any?

Are you running on Apache? If so, I have a tutorial you might be interested in, not a script, but something better if you've got the right server for it.

I believe webmasterbase.com has an article on hot-linking in PHP

**Josh** · 06-11-2002, 02:07 PM

I'll check it out...
Tiggy, I went to that site and it works with images but not zip's..

Josh,

Are you refering to hotlinking or adbusters/removers?

PS> You need to fix your avatar

**Josh** · 06-11-2002, 04:08 PM

The one Tiggy gave me. One where you use .htaccess
Hmmm, Can I use a custom avatar? I got one:

You should be able to modify the code for .htaccess to work with .zip files or any files you like, I just used images as an example as they are the most likely to be leeched (either knowingly or otherwise). Unfortunately I do not have the facilities available to be able to test the code out to tell you more than I have done in the article - I host on IIS and don't have Apache installed on my home computer.

I'll try but I don't know. I tried with jpg's and my front header didn't come up after that.
