jpg parasites:

"The JPG Parasite page in my DeadBeat Gallery is dedicated to those poachers who secretly use someone else's website to remotely host a photo they've taken from them (hotlinking). It's one thing to download a photo for your personal use. That's common enough around the web. If you're at all decent about it, you rename it and store it on your own server. The jpg parasite, on the other hand, doesn't download the photo at all. He leaves it where he finds it and lets his host pay for the space and data transfer.


thanks Robert My Blahg
