 * Ok, the “last posts” section on the sidebar does not show the last posts suddenly.
   The posts it’s showing are from around the time of St. Patrick’s Day.

 * Strange.. can I see the code from your sidebar which generates the list of last
   posts?

 * Where do you assign $recentposts? It’s not in the code above.

 * Also, if you wrap code tags around code that you paste in here, it will show 
   up properly.
 * Kafkaesqui raises a good question. The code does not show where the actual list
   of recent posts is being generated (in $recentposts).

 * Sorry, you need to enable sending referrers for this feature to work.
 * Ok
 * I have come to my limit with server based apps that change on the fly and have
   no concrete resolutions to bugs that occur constantly. I have posted to the blog
   before, it is our companies blog and all of a sudden we start getting the above
   error.
 * We have followed the FAQ’s and trouble shooting with NO SUCCESS.
 * I want a solution to this please.
