.htaccess is your friend there if you want to prevent deeplinking those images from other sites. Exampje 1 .htaccess that will deliver broken images to anyone deeplinking to it: RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^https?://(www\.)?themepark.nl/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.*$ - [F,NC]v2 replaces any deeplinked image with our "don't steal the bandwith" image.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://.*themepark.nl/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|GIF|jpg|JPG)$ dontstealourbandwith.gif [L]

Thanks, however I don't think .htaccess files work with IIS

Hmm, I guess it doesn't. After googling I did find this: http://www.helicontech.com/hotlinkblocker/There's more to explore, but it's not so easy as with apache.

I'm almost positive in windows you can block any site loading anything from your site where the request doesn't come from someone clicking on your site to begin with (like the referrer feature in threads). It's been a while tho. ntdoc may have an answer for you.

Hehe, another reason I prefer Apache to IIS (and yes, apache can run in Windows ;))

Hehe, another reason I prefer Apache to IIS (and yes, apache can run in Windows ;)) But most businesses that run Windows don't seem to want to run Apache. I'm not sure how to do it myself either as I've not had to stop it from happening on IIS since the sites are typically in a LAN where it's not an issue. If I run across anything I'll post back about it. There are a few great IIS blogs out there.
