Update:So, it turns out that my bandwidth thief is Google. Seems that nobody's linking to my menubar.js file at all... all the traffic is coming from google searches for Darren James, who, as it turns out, is a porn star that was recently diagnosed with HIV, causing the entire porn industry to cease production for the next six months. It appears that he was a very popular adult movie star. And I'm the number 3 result when you search for "Darren James".I found this in my usage stats today....
1 15188 17.74% 15584 1.19% /js/menubar.jsThink someone's been directly linking to my JS file?
I think so.
So I wrote up a little script, that hopefully Alan is putting on the server for me right now (since I don't have access from work).
It puts up a nice little alert box informing the visitor that the script is stolen...... then redirects them to my main site. I should see a bit of traffic coming through there..... :)

Well, I put it up, so we'll see I guess :)

We've been hearing (and in some cases teaching) about safe sexual practices for over a decade and yet the world of "adult entertainment" plays with death on a tight production schedule.
Oh, and you're #2 and #3 now. Happy traffic! ;)
