Ahhh Very helpful, wouldnt it expect it to do that, usually Norton likes to be a pain in my ass and pop up uselessy. Well I am using IE-6, Norton Internet Shitcurity 2003 (6.0.4.35) and Norton Anti-Virus (9.05.15)

DERRR i forgot to tell you, that it did work . I just disabled Norton Internet Sh!tcurity and Claimed those referers back

No Need for those using Norton Internet Sh!tcurity the solution is as follows:

<open Norton Internet Security up, click "options">>"Internet Security">>"Web Content"TAB>>"Global Settings"TAB and permit "Information about visited sites"

Norton Internet Security 2004:

Either

Disable Privacy control

--or--

Click "privacy control" -> "Configure" (right panel) -> "Advanced" ->  "Add site" -> enter: www.msgpluslive.net -> select it and permit "Information about the visited sites".


Hope this helps!

But i still want to enable downloads for people with that option on too. Because Norton is quite popular and not everybody is smart enough to turn that feature off or come here to see what's causing the problen, so...

Three6Mafia and BigTrev (and everyone else who uses Norton): Could you please turn that feature back on and click on this link: http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/referercheck.php and tell me what it says exactly.

what is quoted with option "information about visited sites" Blocked is
'Your referer is: "".'

Whilst permited the following quote is returned:
'Your referer is: "http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=61687&page=2".'

Blah, i'm not to worried, i can download MP!L Scripts (What more could one ask for?)

Thanks. It should now work with that option in Norton on too, if anyone can confirm that it would be nice.

Actually you can set Firefox to not provide referal data to the website (so this problem may not be related to only Norton): just setting network.http.sendRefererHeader in your about:config to 0 disables it, and 1 enables

But who, in thier right mind uses "firefux".
blah..
Thanx MenthiX, much appreciated.

oh and Pai the err referal problem has been solved if you took the time to take notice of MenthiX's previous post

Well for starters, I use firefox. And so do a lot of other people, so your personal opinion about it doesn't change the fact that it's quite popular, and therefore worth considering

Secondly, if you had taken the time to read the thread from the beggining, you'd notice that Norton was just a hunch to what could be causing the problem, because the original thread starter never confirmed that he was using Norton. So what I did was to inform that the problem could also be caused by another thing other than Norton, Firefox.

And thirdly, as a tester, it's my duty to give as much possible information about any problem, and to try to help solve it

well then take it to a firefux forum,
the problem at hand was downloading the scripting info, it has now been solved, norton or no norton, firefux or IE
