Photocart users pay attention. According to this thread in the photocart forum there is a photocart vulnerability that allowed outside sites to potentially display your images.

CAUTION: Do not click beyond this link if you cannot view NSFW images in your office. NSFW = there are pornography type ads/images found on this site. The site “Fusker Net” that is linked to from within the photocart forums displays some ads etc. But if you have a photocart you can check via that site if your images are being hotlinked.

What is hotlinking?

Inline linking (also known as hotlinking, leeching, piggy-backing, direct linking, offsite image grabs) is the use of a linked object, often an image, from one site into a web page belonging to a second site. The second site is said to have an inline link to the site where the object is located. – wikipedia

Long story short. Photocart users be sure to grab the patch found in this link and follow along in their thread. (remember my caution above when clicking links found within that thread)
