Image LEECHED from Coasterbuzz

I have noticed that for about the past month, Badnitrus and Coasterbuzz have this Image Leeched from Coasterbuzz.com thing, and it makes it impossible to view anything on Badnitrus without highlighting the text. Have any of you been having this problem???

If you have a firewall (or Norton Security) it may be stripping out the referrer for the image request. The referrer is normally the page the image is in. Our server is set up to prevent people from embedding these images in their own sites.

Adjust your firewall or Norton settings to fix the problem.

Cornerstone Festival 2002... I will be there

Ok, I found what to do in order to fix this...

For me, I am using Norton Internet Security 2002, and so it might be a tad different than the 2001 version.

1. Go To Privacy Control

2. Click Custom Level

3. When the window comes up, deselect Enable Browser Privacy.

That should make it work. Because Coasterbuzz is working perfectly now.

That would make sense, since it's probably stripping everything out of the request. Honestly, I can't understand why anyone would ever care that a site owner knows what browser you're using. If anything, that helps the site owner realize who the audience is and to keep the site compatible!

Yea, basically, all you gotta do is IE now, with how little Netscape's market share, its pathetic. Oh well, 1 browser, 1 layout, 1/2 of the work in a way.
