Yeah I noticed that too. Looks like I may have to consider regulating linking.

Yea if the software was written to auotmatically update both servers at the same time.. and then you set up DNS round robin you could do 'load balancing'.

What "software" os this?

I'm considering that for neffing.com and might discuss it with notfred for fox302.com

Only allow hotlinking to certain sites via .htaccess
