403 Errors on 1 page only for images

[ukgimp]

I am throwing 403 errors for images on the index page only. Every other page is fine and once the image has been cached it works fine.

I have the following in my htaccess to prevent hotlinking, but sure that would affect every page?

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}!^http://mysite.co.uk/.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}!^http://www.mysite.co.uk/.*$ [NC]
#RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}!^http://www.trusted.com/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .*\.(gif¦GIF¦jpg¦JPG)$ - [F]

Cheers

I think this has cost me an ODP listing so I have the hump.

HTTP_REFERER is not reliable.

Found this not long after posting. Think I have it sorted.
