a poster is having trouble posting on my site. Here is the error he is getting:
The host you are trying to send the input from is not a valid host.
Please use your back button to return to the previous page.
Can anyone help me with this.

Yup. Either turn off the referer check in your config file.... or the user needs to tone down their firewall settings. It's their firewall that is being too secure and blocking them from posting. Instructions for them doing that is about halfway down this document.

You can read this document HERE or if you decide you can turn OFF the REFERER check in the config options in the admin panel. This is usually a problem when a user is using a firewall problem that blocks the referer info.

We have been getting alot of kudos lately for great support at this site and the Infopop site. Good work all involved. This community is growing fast, and threads is catching on in popularity. The more this place here grows.... the cooler stuff we end up with.
