>Description:
I run an image archive and have a problem with people linking directly to
pictures on my site. At the ISP that I previously used, they added a redirect
command that would redirect an address based on the refering pages address.

This site is an example of what I am trying to stop.
>Fix:
Create a new command that will redirect based on the refering pages address. An
example of how it was done with another server can be found at
