Prevent hotlinking

[Michael Shadle]

Try

"valid_referers none blocked *.etc.com etc"

perhaps you're not sending a referrer header. Some "internet security
suites" do that for "privacy" and I hate them. or malfunctioning
browsers or some browsers include that option now.

that's the only thing I see wrong there.
