Removing the code "?i=1" that appears at the end of the address

Hello.

I'm just wondering if the code "?i=1" that sometimes appear at the end of the address can be removed? I have a problem with this code because I cannot hotlink an image stored on my site to a certain website.

Like for example this link on my site: "http://uideotechdepot.ezyro.com/home.html", it doesn't have the code at the end of the URL. But when I click it on my site, the page opens as "http://uideotechdepot.ezyro.com/home.html?i=1".

Thanks.

This is the way we track stats of our clients' websites and unfortunately, it cannot be removed.

Thanks. That's too bad. I won't be able to hotlink images to other sites because of the code. It constantly appears when I link an image from my site to a forum site that uses BB codes.

By the way, what happened last night, Feb 12 around 8 PM Hong Kong time? There seems to be a problem with ProFreeHost when logging in. I get a lot of errors on my screen. That broke the updating of my site.

Thanks.

Yes, our database was hit by an attack but we have managed to fully recover everything. Now everything should work as expected.
