Hotlinks files from blocked Sites/Servers

    If I had a site that had a banner or flash banner who's host was blocked by the computer I was viewing the site, would that affect whether the banner file (.gif or .swf) will show up or not?

    Like If I was viewing a banner linked from anotherdomain.com/banner.swf through mydomain.com from computer A. But computer A's firewall has anotherdomain.com blocked, will anotherdomain.com/banner.swf appear on mydomain.com?

    Sorry if it sounds a little confusing. If anyone knows what I mean let me know.


    Thanks,
    Exaro

    If computer A was blocking anotherdomain.com and you are on Computer A, I would say that any files on anotherdomain.com would be blocked.
