IIS6 to block someone from sharing filesI am looking for a way, perhaps with ISAPI filters, in IIS6 to block someone
from sharing files / "porn" pic's under their website. I have users with their www.domainname.com and they are hosting pics and files under their account. There isn't one link of the website at all pointing to these pics and I would like to make it so that someone can't just type http://www.domainname.com/naked19teen.jpg and view photos. This has become a problem and I am looking to block this. Backup wrote:

Presumably you have something in your t&c of use to stop people hosting offensive material? If not then there might be a way to reject requests to non-html files (e.g. jpg & gif) if the request does not have a referer. Not sure how or if it would work. There's a third part ISAPI filter called LeechBlocker that can do this
pretty well. http://www.michaelbrumm.com/leechblocker.html -- Show quoteJason Brown Microsoft GTSC, IIS This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

to implement it. I did what I thought was setting it up but I still allowed me to gain access to sub paths and pull image files. My Example of sub paths are this: when a web site is: www.domain.com but someone is hosting photos in a path called /hidden/hope_the/admin/doesnt/see/this/. There are no links for the site, so what the use is doing is pulling images (Steeling) them from the www.domain.com site and posting it on www.theirsite.com It sounds like you did not set up the ISAPI Filter correctly. Please give
the instructions that you followed - exactly. -- //David IIS http://blogs.msdn.com/David.Wang This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. // "Backup" <bac***@yahoo.com> wrote in message I looked into that ISAPI filter called Leech Blocker.

This is somewhat difficult, because what is a "porn" pic? A computer cannot (today) look at a picture, and tell if it is a "good" picture, or a "bad" picture. I think that the best solution is given by Leon; deny users to have these kind of material on their website, or else they can have their account canceled. An ISAPI filter can block serving of files based on many different criterias (host header, file name, etc.). But again, there is no way to remove everything (unless you block all pictures, but that is probably not an option). Sooner or later, these people will find a way to have their pictures being served by the webserver.
