    Hey friends
    I really need your help now, as i have no idea what's going wrong with my site.
    My website used to take up a bandwidth of around 4-5GB daily, but unbelievably, during the last 1 week, it has sky-rocketted to around 50-150GB !!!!

    I dont know what's wrong and what is actually eating up my bandwidth like that, and i need your help to please help me find out.

    I have attached a few screenshots of my stats, i hope u guys will help me figure out what's going wrong !!!

    Thank you so much !

    As you can see, an IP which resolves to myspacegraphicsworld.com seems to be doing a ton of traffic.

    Looks like 74.54.188.18 is grabbing all your content and in the process using a ton of bandwidth. Block the IP and your usage should become a little more sane again.

    That ip address happens to be that of my site itself, so what do you think will happen if i try blocking my site's ip itself ?
    Sorry, but I really have no idea !

    Since it's a recent thing I'm guessing you probably made a change or added something this month.

    Check for script errors on your server.

    I think many has been using your graphics now compared to previous months. HotLinks is always a waste of bandwidth...
