Hotlink an image? That's now how the Like button works. It's more like linking to an IFRAME with its own javascript. Slight diff.

Hardly. Hotlinking an image can send an FB cookie too, and that's all you need.

The JS can't break out of it's frame, so that doesn't really matter. The cookie comes with the request (image, html or JS, it doesn't matter).
