    I checked out their site, and notice that they boast "anti-theft" technology. Supposedly, they can prevent you thugs from stealing webpage source code and images.

    So I ran their example, and checked it out. Sure enough, they block right-click, shift-f10, and the right-click key on the keyboard. Next stop, my browser's cache. Whoops! All the files and images are in there. Do'o!!

    > in konqueror, i get blocked with or without popup >blocking on

    I just added www.anti-leech.com/antitheft.php to the user.actions file, and it now works fine with Konqueror (javascript off).

    However, it doesn't seem to work with Mozilla but this has JS on and it seems Mozilla can't yet disable/enable JS on a per-site basis (otherwise turning JS off just for anti-leech.com would also fix this).

    But I think they are owned, anyway...

    Run the Anti-Leech security tester on "your site" - www.anti-leech.com
    then see all the source and links that are visible, and howly poorly written "your site" is.

    so is the link you provided supposed to be what non-blocking browsers render the example page?

      This is an example of a website using Anti-Theft.

    i defeated a few of those checks with the prefbar mozilla plugin (can toggle features like js, java, popups, proxies, cookies, images, colors, ua). unfortunately, the Java plugin seems to panic when the ua is set to IE ... says something like 'do not use the Netscape Java plugin with Internet Explorer.' the java applet-protected links page doesn't need java support for the popups (but does need body onload(popup) support and will pop up several ads) and the gateway link brings me to a page with a real java applet that just sits there in "Loading Java Applet..." mode (presumably due to the NS/Java on IE problem).

    I've seen some posts that point out that people have every right to block popups and they are not stealing anything. That is true, but it's worth pointing out that sites also have every right to exploit your browser's capabilities, since YOU are the one making the initial HTTP GET. It's not as if the majority of sites use spyware to randomly create windows while you are composing email or doing some other unrelated task.

    As far as I'm concerned, if a site wants to fail hard if my browser doesn't support features that the site requires, that's their problem. There are often multiple sources for whatever service they are providing.

    Oh, also, would you really trust a company that has error messages like these?

  18. Insane Setup? by suwain_2 · · Score: 2 · on Only Thieves Block Pop-Ups
    First off, it took me like 30 seconds to be 'refused'. I can't think of a bigger turn-off for a website than having to wait 30+ seconds to be 'approved' (or, in this case, rejected) just to visit -- I'll be at someone else's site long before this thing refuses me.

    What I REALLY don't get is why the text it displays is set as an 'argument' -- you can make it say different things by changing the argument specified in the URL: All my base are belong to them?

  22. I like their anti-image leech method by MiTEG · · Score: 2, Informative · on Only Thieves Block Pop-Ups

    By using the Anti-Image service, you can protect all your images and make it impossible for people to download them from your site. You will also stop other webmaster trying to leech them directly of your server.

    Try out their example.

    Okay, obfuscating the URL of the GIF with some screwy PHP probably isn't the best way to "secure" your images. To bypass their method, just view the source to find the scripted redirect that points to the actual image

    You'll probably have to copy and paste those URL's because they seem to block off-site deep linking.
