Actually, now that I think about it, it would prevent it, wouldn't it?
I think that when you do that, the referer header is blank or missing.
I could be wrong; I don't know.
You could also probably snag it from the cache or temporary files, if
the browser saves them that way. And I think they could have a
different extension, like .asp or .php, from the server script that
was used to test the referer and include the font data (or not).
