Topic: Bad HTTP_REFERER

I've been through the sticky forum post, but haven't had any luck resolving this issue. For one thing, I receive the Bad HTTP_REFERER error when I try to change the Base URL under Admin/Options. The base URL I'm using is http://milkenglish.com/forum. I'd like to try adding www. to the URL, but, again, it won't let me make the change. Nor can I edit my categories.

I am not running a firewall or any type of protection. I can't figure out why I can't use get this working.

On another site on which I have PunBB up and running, I configured it long ago. Now, when I try to made changes, I also receive a Bad HTTP_REFERER error. This site is http://angie-hart.com.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Re: Bad HTTP_REFERER

Can you try it from a different computer or perhaps just with a different browser? The fact that you can't even update admin/options leads me to believe that something is stripping out your referrer.
