AHL (AntiHotLinker) Information


We have the only working solution to protect your movie files against hotlinking. AHL (AntiHotLinker) provides bullet proof anti hotlinking protection and full control of hotlinking traffic. AHL (AntiHotLinker) not only saves bandwidth, it makes money!

THERE WAS NO WAY TO PROPERLY PROTECT MOVIES BEFORE AHL (AntiHotLinker)
Standard Apache Rewrite Module that you use to protect images cannot protect movies, since movie players do not pass referrers and you have to allow visitors without referrer information, thus leaving your movie files open for hotlinkers.
Use of cookie based protection fails since there are plenty of visitors that turn off that feature in their browser settings. You also have to include a Java Script on all your pages to use this feature and it creates problems with people who turn off Java Scripts in their browsers as well.
Use of any other method utilizing scripts written in PHP, CGI or Java Scrip creates problems with TGP scripts that simply blacklist submissions with script statements in the HTML documents. This is not to mention that you have to rewrite all your existing pages with the new code, which is time consuming and will lead to a definite blacklist of all your domains, emails, and IP's.


SAVE MONEY ON YOUR BANDWIDTH BILL
Our statistics show that approximately 15% of all movie requests come from visitors generated by the hotlinkers posting direct links to your movies. These include: a) bulletin boards all over the world (mainly in Asia and Eastern Europe); cheating TGPs, Movie Posts, CJs, free sites, and even pay sites run by cheating webmasters; c) friend to friend email links; d) direct movie bookmarks. Visitors from all of those sources use your bandwidth but never see any of your advertisements!

MAKE MONEY ON HOTLINKING TRAFFIC
AHL (AntiHotLinker) allows you to take control of the hotlinking traffic by redirecting it to your sponsors, traffic trades and so on. Our experience shows that this traffic sells very well to dialers, email collection and "for free" programs. The hotlinking webmaster does not know that the movies are protected because he visited your html document where you posted the movie and was allowed to view these movies. But all consecutive visitors who will try to open your movies without seeing your html pages will be redirected to your favorite destination. :-)
