Question

I m trying to avoid direct links from other sites to my site s downloadables.

My exe,zip and msi files are under /files directory. How can I avoid direct links to them?

Thanks in advance...

Answer 1

Add the following to a .htaccess file in your /files directory

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.+.)?mysite.com/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteRule .*.(exe|zip|msi)$ /images/nohotlink.jpg [L]

Change "mysite.com" to your domain and /images/nohotlink.jpg to an image you wish to display telling users hotlinking is not allowed.
