people using our bandwidth by linking to video

Hello
we have a video clip on our site, playing as a wmv file in wmplayer..... what has happened latley is our stats show that someones 'diary' site is showing our video...AND it is playing it on their site but downloaded from ours through some software link to our site.
This runs up our bandwidth limit and doesnt send the visitors to our site.

Is this a common practice?
Is this an acceptable/tolerated practice?
What may be ways to prevent this (we cannot stream from our host)

appreciate thoughts
stephenn
