Subject: RE: BS: Wearing knotted hankies
That link to bobad's pic worked fine for me....but when I disabled my Proxomitron program that filters my browsing, it also got the 'leach' warning....There are pages which have embedded code to prevent direct linking to images which THEY want you to see only if you 'come in the front door'. Proxomitron has scripts that get around the restrictions in many cases.

What the page did was read the location the request came from, (in this case, from Mudcat), and refuse it if it was not from their own site. It will work it you copy the link and paste it in, so that there is no Mudcat link between you and it.
