Fucking Hotlinking Bastards!!!
I'm having a fucking nightmare at the moment with damn Korean hotlinkers. I had a regular .htaccess file that is supposed to block hotlinking but it obvioulsy didnt' work because I noticed one Korean site was hitting me to the tune of 25K a day!!!
So I also added a line to block that specific url and it seemed to work but I also inadvertently blocked genuine surfers and seemed to piss off a few list owners inadvertently into the bargain.
I know .htaccess isn't foolproof and can accidentally block people who's browser/firewall doens't send any valid HTTP_REFERER so what the fuck should I do?
As it stands I've just blocked this one url at the moment and I hope that works but I'd rather find a better long term solution.
Any suggestions on how I can block the hotlinkers whitout blocking genuine traffic?
Thanks
