Default HTTP Referer

I found the URL to the (experimental) new site of buizel.net, it may be confidential information so I won't release it.
I found that URL from my server logs, which contains referrer information.

Back to topic, Referer HTTP header sucks, make sure your browser do not send Referer HTTP header, because it made some images invisible (because of hotlinking protection). I hate it when I came to a page from Google, and that page highlights the Google keywords.

If you are working on a private URL, and you clicked an external link, that server will log the private URL in the Referer header.

To disable referrer on Firefox, go to about:config and edit network.http.sendRefererHeader to 0.

Yeah, I know all about that. I was testing my affiliates links. I probably should require authetication (generates 401 error if you don't log in) until I release it.

(Hey, what do you think of the new layout? )

It's a lot better.
The only important thing to do is to import the contents.

Alright. The new site is password-protected. Give it another try.

I also found some other Beta sites such as Eevee's HQ, it required login.

My favorite referral is eBay. Some people love to use a couple images to put on their product description.

For some strange reason, the ONE Digimon image (Agumon) is commonly referred.
