WTG Yahoo - not!

http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/ handily gives the direct link to your .wmv files so surfers can get them without having to look at those boring ads you put on the page :)

Anyone have an idiot-proof step-by-step guide to disallowing that to happen? I really am clueless when it comes to protecting my wmv files, which is why none of them are!

Wow never saw that one b4. There's got to be a tool for it

.wmv files are easy to grab anyway so they're not doing anything that's not alrady being done.

try watermarking the movies with a banner

Only pages show up for me using that page. How do I get WMV links to appear?

Sir Moby, - I hear you, I know they are easy to grab, but I don't agree that a SE should be linking direct to them :(

Adamneve, - if only I were not so simple I'd know how to do that lol, I use windows movie maker, plus it's pretty unlikely a surfer will bother typing-in, lthough I know a samll number of them will

Halfdeck, - it may be just the positioning of the results, a domain I use has 3 wmv files on the second page. I typed in another domain that uses a lot of wmv files on their free sites and for the first 8 pages found the same - links to pages only, so it may be just 'bad luck' as to whether your wmv files get linked directly to on the first couple of pages.

ProAdult have a script on their free hosting that renames the folder that the movies is in once a day or something like that, at the sametime changes the links on your "Movieindex" so that they point to the folders new name.

A script like that must be able somewhere on the net or does it not stop this problem?

WOW! That was complicated, I hope you understand what I mean. Sorry for my Swenglish...
