Ae you talking about leeching? Do you want to prevent leeching from your site where people automatically download all the images gallery hosts?

This should help: Activate the url rewrite module and enable the hotlink protection rule in "site admin - url rewrite".

it was used but some software can scan images to download it

I had use watermark to prevent my images but I want nobody can download serial images in the same time.

I see some website good at protecting (eg: http://www.imagegarden.net/image_c.php?imagesession=771fcca2d74b566f8c8278a160179bd0&cataid=25&albumid=1998&imageid=2&type=jpeg )
