.htaccess + PHP referrer check.Public versions of Rapidleech are notorious for being backdoored. Because the original script is open source, malicious actors have injected remote shells, SQL injectors, and crypto miners into "nulled" copies distributed on forums.
The Rapidleech v2 Exclusive solves this with: rapidleech v2 exclusive

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName leech.yourdomain.com
