DOH! >.< This idiot is still direct-linking your files! I freaking know. I hope she dies a horrible death. I moved all the episodes to a different folder, and renamed the movies, but she's still direct-linking the old ones, which means that people who go to her site get nothing. I hate her.  |

If I were a ninja Betty Ann, I would avenge you. But alas, the last time I tried hopping from roof top to roof top I broke a leg, so I can only send angry mental waves at her. So far I've tried using my mind to choke her, stab her, push her off a cliff, and scoop off her face with a dull spoon, but it's not working. If it gets worse I'll get my Mexican Mafia connections to rub her out.   Priss P.S. Or, if you'd prefer, I could always get the Italian Mafia to do it. Funny story, actually, about how those connections arose...  |

Direct-linkers either don't know what the HELL they're doing, or they just don't care what the HELL they're doing. I'd say try and find the script to block anyone from copying the URL, but (1) others can't really save images such as link buttons and (2) the direct-linkers can STILL get around that. *sits and hopes for a script that can ban direct-linking, but is getting nothing...*

This is completely useless, I know it. My webhostess told me that users usally generate more than 250 GBs per month, and we have REALLY tried EVERYTHING to stop direct-linkers and people who don't follow the rules, but that's simply IMPOSSIBLE, unfortunately.  |

Well, there are a FEW things you can do to cut back on the direct-linking, mostly involving the .htaccess file.
You can make a .htaccess file by going into notepad and saving a blank txt file as .htaccess (with NO file extention). Then, save that file to your main folder on your domain, where your index.html file is.
Now you've got a .htaccess file, and you can edit it in ways that keep most direct-linkers out. To block a specific site or a specific URL, use this code, EXACTLY the way it looks. Simply copy and paste it directly into the .htaccess file:
and change it in whatever ways you need to. The second line is the blocked URL, the third line is the blocked IP address, and the FOURTH line is basically a redirect. If either of those places tries to access my site, they will be redirected to that link on my site.
Next, to block ALL sites from direct-linking, with some exceptions, use THIS code (just copy and paste it underneath the other code):
This blocks everyone (excluding people with firewalls). replace "yourdomain.com" with your domain, and "allowedsite.com" with any site you want to allow, such as livejournal.com, or whatever. You can copy and paste the allowedsite.com line several times to allow multiple different sites to direct-link you (like forums and things, where you might be direct-linking your own avatar).
I hope that helps some!

Well, I can't download them... It says this page cannot be found. I hope you stopped them for good! I wonder if they're doing it on purpose, or are just stupid.
Oh, and I just decided that I would be extra-careful not to make Priss angry... O____o

I did  I've also banned a few other IP addresses that have used up insane amounts of bandwidth. AND I've recently password protected the episodes, so now the only way people can get them is to fill out a form |

That's fine. I'm just asking everyone to limit his/her downloading, if possible, to save on bandwidth. I am having MASSIVE bandwidth, so I'm basically just asking everyone to only download as much as they need. For example, who really has the time to download and watch ALL the episodes in one day? So why would you need to download all the episodes in one day? |
