Yep, I realise that, what I mean though is that the referer is NEVER
there, for example I ran a few log files through webtrends and it came up
with no referers whatsoever. v.strange!
I've checked and in the properties for logging in IIS it is definitely
enabled to log the referer. I've ran tests by setting up a link on
another server to a page on our server and getting it to display the
referer but got nada... If I put this test page with the link on our
server though and have it link to another page on our server it does then
give the referer... is it possible for the the firewall to strip out the
referer or something odd like that?
I'm not to "up" on firewalls so dont laugh too hard if that sounds
ridiculous! :) I'm clutching at straws here...
