    I recently added the following code, and from that point I am getting my images counting on Analytics stats, getting a lot more traffic on the general reports... I just don´t get what is being tracked regarding the Hotlinking images.

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.+\.)?site.com [NC]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
    RewriteRule .*\.(jpe?g|gif|bmp|png)$ /hotlink.gif [L]

    Thanks a lot in advance for your comments on this.
