New Fetching Mod Version
DownloadsMGCJerry writes "I have finally finished testing my new version of the "Fetching Mod".

What is the Fetching Mod? It is a downloads hack that will require all visitors to re-type a random password much like the secuirty code in order to download files. This will help protect your download section from mass-downloading apps and web rippers. This new version utilizes PHP's GD library to generate the image, or without GD, it will display the random password as text. This also has some other features that are helpful. This is the same script that is used on my nuke site that you will be able to test out if you download the file.

Download and see it here. No Registration Required.

Thanks and enjoy."

You can get the above mentioned download directly, thus left those who use such add-on unprotected from mass-downloaders.

Try it, download [www.2thextreme.org].

It got cut out, though it displayed in its entirety when I previewed it, once posted the URL got cut out.

Now to download without requiring the password just put this in your browser address bar:

Heh, obviously it isnt perfect, but it is only designed to help prevent downloads from being sucked up by mass-downloading apps and web copying spiders not from real humans.

Posting those links kinda defeats the purpose on why I created the thing.

I don't understand why not just use .htaccess to limit direct linking?

I use Fetching Mod on my site, but as noted, it's only half the answer. To prevent hotinking, simply make a .htaccess file containing the following code and put it in your 'download' directory:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://yourdomain.com.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.yourdomain.com.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .*.(zip)$ http://www.yourdomain.com [R,NC]

You can, of course, add more file extensions to the list, but I only use ZIP files. As an example, you could do this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://yourdomain.com.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.yourdomain.com.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .*.(zip|gif|jpg)$ http://www.yourdomain.com[R,NC]

If you would rather display a ripping flame page instead of sending hotlinkers to your homepage:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://yourdomain.com.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.yourdomain.com.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .*.(zip|gif|jpg)$ http://www.yourdomain.com/stophotlinkingtome.html [R,NC]

so, if the direct link works, as that user posted, i assume the mod doesn't use randomly generated passcodes? that would be the best, cus once someone figures out the static passcode, they could just post a link somewhere, like the user did here

Most websites who steal bandwidth encourage their users to use download managers and to set their preferences to generate http referers(sic) from the download URL.

If you are using GetRight or any other download manager and have set it up as above mentioned, you can download the Fetching Mod "protected" by the .htaccess and Fetching Mod using the following links:
http://www.lenon.com/fetch.php?lid=11&checkpass=bobosim&passcode=bobosim&title=Fetching%20Mod&fetchid=aHR0cDovL2Rvd25sb2FkLmxlbm9uLmNvbS9mZXRjaG1vZC56aXA=
or
http://download.lenon.com/fetchmod.zip

What's worse, some web sites don't even requiere the user to have a download manager, they provide their own thru an ActiveX Object which already incorporates Referer Spoofing.
