    I’ve just discover a guy stealing my badwidth! Can anybody help me with this. He’s linking to my zip files, and copied an entire page of my html.

    Please help. I’ve tried a few things i found about .htaccess, but they all give me an internal server error.

    Thanks in advance.

    Not directly WordPress related but .htaccess is the way to go alright. Try what this article recommends, and tweak the extension list to suit your needs (add |zip).

    Note of caution: Don’t forget to explicitly allow your own blog access to the images.
