Firstly it uses frames (which aren't really implemented). Should
necessarily prevent you accessing the site, though.
Bugger! I keep forgetting that frames aren't properly supported.
As for the error message, it appears that it checks the HTTP Referer
header sent by the browser and dies if it's "incorrect". NetSurf
doesn't
send the Referer header, hence the error message.
Ok. Is the site wrong to do what it does or is the sending of referer
headers something waiting to be implemented for Netsurf?
Cheers!
