   Okey, so I've done everything i right (i think) and when I tried to post anything, this message came up. So I followed the instructions how to enable sending referrers for IE 6.0, but it still doesn't work! Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

   I got Norton Personal Firewall, maybe it got something to do with the firewall?

   Well, can someone please help me, I'm going mad.

   Yes, Norton Personal Firewall blocks referrers by default. You need to disable that functionality in there.

   Okay, so I tried to disable the norton firewall, and then it worked. So Norton is the problem... I did what they said on that page, service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/nip.nsf/pfdocs/2000031311301136?OpenDocument&ExpandSection=3, but it doesn't work.

   Hi
   Yes, I have followed the instructions too. It worked once in IE6, now it doesnt work. I havent changed any settings either in IE6 or my firewall.
   Since it is working in firefox, I dont think there is any problem with the firewall, rather in IE6.
   thanks
