RewriteEngine on

Are you using your domain with our without www?

If you only want to use it with "www":

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mysite\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.mysite.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.mysite.com/.*$      [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.mysite.com$      [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteRule .*\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|bmp|swf|mp3|mpeg|mpg|ram|rm|wma|wav|asx|wmv|avi|mov|zip|rar|exe)$ http://www.mysite.com [NC,R,L]
