Re: Direct linking of images

Thanks for the quick reply. Currently, is says "Hotlink protection is currently Disabled". Do I enable this?

Also, what about is the ipn_main_handler.php?

Re: Direct linking of images

You might want to read some htaccess tutorials about hotlinking - in my eyes hot linking is a good alternative way to advertise! -> Try this

The ipn_main_handler.php is for PayPal Instant Payment notification and will not use your bandwidth, unless a payment was made. (Just like a normal page request)

If you really have to worry about bandwidth then you might take a look around - there some certified zen-cart hosts listed on the site. I am also spezialized in zen-cart hosting.
