Redirect troubles

[chemodan]

I am owner of shareware website.
I just trying to redirect all users who want to download my software from warez sites by direct link.

For this purpose I put two files into download directory.
1) download.php which contains:

<?php

$ban[]="badsite1.com";
$ban[]="badsite2.com";

$isban=false;

foreach ($ban as $key => $ref):
         if ( strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], $ref)!=0 ):
              header ("Location:http://www.mysite.com/exit.html");
              $isban=true;
              break;
         endif;
endforeach;

if (!$isban)
{
  header ("Location:http://mysite.com/download/$id");
}

?>

2) And the htaccess file which contains:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^setup.exe$ download.php?$1&id=setup-new.exe

Redirect is works fine, bad user is redirected to http://www.mysite.com/exit.html
But normal user is redirected to http://mysite.com/download/ instead of http://mysite.com/download/setup-new.exe
When I used my previous hosting provider I have no problem like this. Please help.

Hi,

there was another comment very similar to yours here on the forum. search for .exe - it was something in his .htaccess code that had /exe at the end of a line of code. I can't remember what it was. Try looking only at new posts and you should be able to find it.

Good luck,
GOD BLESS,

ha! found it ->
# deny most common except .php/.html
<FilesMatch "\.(inc|tpl|h|ihtml|sql|ini|conf|class|bin|spd |the me|module|exe)$">
deny from all
</FilesMatch>

That little exe on the end of the line ....... simple but deadly !!

Thank you.
But I don't need deny from all, I need redirect from bad sites only, and allow to good sites.
