Hotlinking

Does anyone know of a method/technique to keep assknobs from hotlinking images from my archives?

I know that I can change the image URL individually, but other than putting all of my images into another folder or changing the archive folder name, is there a global method to keep this from happening?

I'm finding that a lot of my images are being picked up/hotlinked via Google and it's almost exclusively from assknobs using MySpace.

If you log into your c-panel, there's an icon on the first page called hot-link protection. That'll set you up.

I feel sort of stupid now that I see it in PLAIN SIGHT on the C-Panel.....[/dork]

But I kind of LIKE screwing with the hotlinked image URLs. Replace the hotlinked images with one of a big steaming pile of poop. I've found that my image theft has decreased dramatically.
