Is there such a script in php that I can prevent leeching of files or images?
or at least mask the movie or swf file link.

Thanks

Maybe you can direct every single request someone makes to a .htaccess file which in turns send it to be processed by a php file and if a certain set of rules are correct, it bans the loading....

I am not a pro but sounds logical

Something like this
