Unscrupulous site owners may link to your content directly and literally STEAL your BANDWIDTH.

Now, with LinkDeny, you can fight back and control full access to your Web site or Web-based application content and to ensure that your bandwidth use is for your site users only -- keeping out all types of "bad" traffic.
