Dodgy referers

Apr27

Just written some code to plug into my refererCode scripts to stop this nonsense... it's sure to be a bit too strict at first, but what it's going to do is check each new referer I get in my logs, request that page to see if there really is a link to my page on it, and if there's not log it. Too many pages without a proper link to me, and you're out of the game!

It's a shame to have to generate extra web traffic like this, hopefully it will be kept to a minimum though.

Going to set this message as the referer, so if you see this, you know what's going on! Any comments, leave them below...

I read that as dodgy referees and my ears perked up. Now I see it's just drivel, I'm disappointed.

Drivel???

How dare you sir... I did realise overnight that following my own rules, I would end up barring my own site, and creating far too much traffic, so this system needs a tweak...

Just realised valued popex punter and fellow Clarke (though no relation) Johnskibeat isn't linked up here either...
