            Bug ID: 175786
           Summary: Can't save images if host disallow hotlinking
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Other
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

On both Discogs, and the Arcade Flyer Archive, I couldn't download images as the website don't allow hot linking and webkit doesn't seem to pass referer information when downloading images to save them.

1. Go to:
http://flyers.arcade-museum.com/?page=flyer&db=videodb&id=182&image=1
2. Right click on the big image and select "Save Image As..." and confirm the destination

We get "Error Downloading: Forbidden" instead of the download working as expected. The image is also available in cache.
