This website shows up on the sites that link to mine.
They dont show on Arin Whois so what can i do.
I need to get them to stop linking to me.
They dont even deserve to be allowed to have a website, there big contribution to the world is [objectionable] movies.
Anyone else got kids?

I'm not sure I understand your problem completely, especially your first line, but the usual approach is to block the objectionable site itself by {REMOTE_ADDR} (IP address), and block visitors referred from that site by {HTTP_REFERER} using mod_rewrite in httpd.conf or .htaccess.

A minor problem with blocking by referrer is that not all accesses will have a referrer, and you'll just have to live with that fact, or ban them one-by-one by IP address.

Try a site search here for "image hotlinking" -- Your application is a bit different, but the techniques used are the same.

The initial problem was i felt potential clients researching my business,or anyone for that matter, might assume i approve of or actually submiitted to a place with such objectionable material.
I'll be reading up on those things you suggested.
Thanks!
