does anyone else notice that when using a bog standard personal firewall (in my case norton) i am unable to use msn.co.uk search. it obviously can't determine where i came from and defaults me back to the home page every time i try to search.
i wonder how many others are therefore unable to use msn.co.uk.
p.s. i have absolutely standard settings on the firewall.
(see also [webmasterworld.com...] which may have some bearing on what you are seeing)
will investigate. although i have been having this problem for 18 months, so i don't think the problem in the other post is the same.
i just found it interesting that msn.co.uk seems to be blocking everyone who does not give a valid referrer - i.e. everyone with a personal firewall.
we don't get much hits from them anyway, but that can't be doing them any good ;)
