Default getting back at a hotlinker?
Just been checking my stats and found someone hotlinking to JS files on my server. See:

FeGOON

He's so stupid, he's even included my mint stats js file.

I haven't got access to htaccess on this server this site is on. This might get me off my arse and move the site to my other server.

In the meantime, any suggestions for getting back at this guy?

Rgds, Dave

well you could throw an on document load into your javascript files making sure you aren't using them on your own website ... and hey presto the world is your oyster ...

Redirect to a stop hotlinking my material image or so on

but it would require you to change the files on your site and might be more trouble than you want ...

.htaccess is the way to go really ASAP but then you know that yourself

Could you do a redirect based on the .js include ? I'm no expert but I guess you could. So in effect get his traffic for a day

I would generally suggest loading a gay hardcore/midget porn image into the document. Usually does the trick.

That would be quite funny, I'd love to see his face when his/her site loads up.
