You have been sent to this website because the link you clicked is a "Hotlink" to another site that has blocked or otherwise disallowed such links.

Just a thought, if this site is doing unscrupulous things such as stealing content, what other nefarious activities may they be engaged in and what risk did it put you in?


"Hotlink"

(AKA: leeching, piggy-backing, direct linking, offsite image grabs) - A hyperlink to a media file (video, audio, Flash, image, etc.) on another site that bypasses any html pages that would identify the site or earn it advertising revenue. Prohibited on many message boards and blogs, as it saps bandwidth from the site serving the media and earns the disdain of the site's owners. "Hotlinking is not only bad etiquette, it's theft."
