Looking on my stats during the last day, I found that many people had linked my forum icons and images on other sites/board, due to the high costs of bandwidth I decide to look around to find a way to stop them !!!
I found this Great Script by Christopher Heng and I use it for protect my icons, then I integrated this code in the attachment.php of VB.
In this way anyone that link directly my images receive an error
Look at the modify on my file.

I had the same problem as someone else in this forum - using .htaccess to protect images blocked my own site from loading them off the server.

Any idea how to stop .htaccess from blocking my site accessing images, whilst keeping it blocking others?
