The .htaccess is not meant for phpBB only :
| Code: | RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www\.example\.com/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|jpg|mp3)$ http://urltoshow.com/imagetoshow.jpg [R,L,NC] |
But this will only make sure the request was referred from your site, and empty referrers will be allowed.
To be more accurate, I think you should use php, for example checking a cookie or a logged in status before you send the file to read.

The code suggested will only block access to *.gif, *.jpg and *.mp3 when the http referrer is not your domain, or if it is empty (this to allow legitimate access for users behind strict firewalls).
You can add the *.wma support using :
| Code: | RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www\.example\.com/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|jpg|mp3|wma)$ http://urltoshow.com/imagetoshow.jpg [R,L,NC] |
It's not 100%, but nothing will since it's always possible to at least capture video and sound from a web page, but it will make it really annoying for others to use your content on other domains.
Rewriting *.wma to *.txt like you suggest would not change much since this would mean to use mod_rewrite to rewrite *.txt to *.wma, for the *.txt files to work properly.
So, one could as well use you *.txt file link where he wants. It would only confuse bots a bit, and the problem is how legitimate ones would behave in front of huge txt files with meaningless content.
If you really want to protect you files, not the content since it can be captured, you'll need to use some script. The script could perform some checks, like a session check, before it would output or not the file's content.
readfile() is handy for this, and mod rewrite could here keep the *.wma links, rewriting them to your script.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www\.mydomain\.com/.*$ [NC]

You can disable anti hot linking for .wma files :
| Code: | RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www\.mydomain\.com/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|jpg|mp3)$ http://mydomain.com/error.jpg [R,L,NC] |
Or try somtehing like :
| Code: | RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !(mydomain\.com) [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|jpg|mp3|wma)$ http://mydomain.com/error.jpg [R,L,NC] |
A bit more opened this way, should allow listening on all sub-domains and ports.
