It means I ballsed up a recent update! The code was prone that if two people registered at the same time, then there would be an error. I tried changing it so this would be allowed - I never meant to upload the code but obviously did with the avatar stuff.

Thanks for letting me know and I'll reverse the changes until I've got time to test it.

You are welcome and thanks for fixing it.

While I am here - just to let you know. I can't see any of the smilies people use. All the emoticons are white boxes with this message in: "Hotlinking from www.openscrolls.net is not permitted". All very odd.

You're running Norton Internet Protection or one of the other similar Home-based Internet Security software.

There is a setting there that is totally unnecesary; you'll find it is something like "Hide/disguise referrer information when browsing" or something like that.

Just turn that off and it will all work nicely.

(Note - don't turn off the Internet Scurity software - they are a Good Thing. Just turn off that one option wich is a Bad Thing.)

Ok. I do have Internet Security but I cannot for the life of me find the thing you mentioned - or anything like it - to turn it off. Where might I find it? Is it in the 'privacy' section?

If you are using CookieCop, Opera Web Browser, AdSubtract or Zone Alarm Pro, I'll need to keep digging.

Need Coffee Look at him... poor thing.

Honey, put your feet up and have a coffee. You deserve it. You've gone beyond the call of duty here. Your mandate is to keep this site rolling, not sort out every member's computer.

Boz, I'm not having a go at you, but I'm sure you can check with the manufacturer of whatever internet security system you're using or look it up on the net. Give our boy a break. Roll Eyes

Thanks,

do.
