Just been looking through my webstats, and one of my top referrers is http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm

So I assume someone has hotlinked their profile to a picture or something on one of my sites, and is stealing my bandwidth mad

The question is, is there any way of finding out the exact page or profile? I've noticed people have done it before, and proceeded to obliterate the image tongue However all I get is index.cfm

Thanks

Just replace the photo with something else, or write "This photo was stolen from..." on the photo. Then they will most likely change it. Maybe replace it with a picture of roadkill or something smile

The only problem is my webstats don't tell me the exact photo or file that is being linked to, all I get is myspace in the 'top referrers' section of my stats frown That's why I need to find the profile really, but when or if I do it will be fun tongue

Edit: I just found out I could download my stats as a .gz file and here's the profile man, what an awful looking profile! They're using one of my background photos, 'sand wales' but I don't have a myspace account so I can't log in to view the page frown If the profile wasn't so naff, I'd let them off, but time for editing fun me thinks tongue

Thanks, from what I can tell he must have used it as the background on his main page, but it has gone now. Checked the stats for today and no requests dead I guess it's watermarked anyway.

So I downloaded a free stats program and have just spent absolutely ages looking at my stats from the last 2 days, and I'm absolutely amazed how much genuine traffic my site is getting, things like pcbs getting downloaded! I should probably put more effort into my pages and draw out some schematics and things...

Too bad, you should have changed it to a picture of goatse.cx or lemonparty.

(Fair warning:Don't blame me for your loss of eyesight if you google up those retina searing images.)
