I think you mean leechers, lechers are another thing entirely. But good article, and I hope to detect and log hotlinks on my domains shortly…

Thank you for this great piece of coding, however after hours of playing and testing I still can’t get something to work. Instead of rewriting in this example to hotlink.png, is there a way to rewrite to an html file? Yes I tried simply replacing the hotlink.png with hotlnk.html and it did not work.

Sorry to bump an old post, but this is perfect for what I need.

Thanks,
Anthony

Hello Vivek!

Thank you very much for this entry.

You could copy the script for autoban domains with excessive hotlinking?
