    authentication issues - PLEASE READ

    We use referrer based authentication for a few sections of our sites. We have recently found that some proxies and many personal firewalls are stripping the referrer. Has anyone found a quick fix or an easy way to get around this? I imagine that streaming video sites or sites that incorporate streaming video would be most affected.

          Use a key registration system. Hit the page, generates a key within the URL.

                  This is the best way to go, I had to program it for the netvideogirls plugin because of the Referer spooffing software that was coming out!

                  This is the best & only way to go!

                              The "key" should be time sensitive at least. If you're really paranoid make the key be based in part on their ip address and user-agent hahahahahahahaha

                                  So what about situations when you have access to streaming video services and the only way they authenticate is via http_referrer?
