    Hello to everyone. I was wondering if anyone here could help me out solve my problem regarding my wordpress. I already tried every method even the other methods as well for enabling sending referrers. But nothing seems to work,whenever I tried updating any options it won’t let me do so due to it always says that I have to enable sending referrers to make it work.

    So meaning I could not change or make:

    Passwords
    Blog Address
    Make Pages
    Make Links
    Choose another theme

    Please help.

  • If you are using Firefox, do you use any extensions at all which interfere with urls?
    MR Tech’s Link Wrapper can do this.

    Otherwise can you detail the browser / OS / firewall / AV and any other relevant info?

    Firefox extensions I used:

    Image Zoom

    Image Bot

    Downthemall

    tabbrowser preference

    session saver

    greasemonkey

    webdeveloper

    dom inspector

    site advisor

    tab clicking options

    OS: Windows Xp Home

    Firewall: Norton Internet Security 2004

    and Zone Alarm Basic (Free)

    I don’t know what AV is sorry.

    Browser’s I use are Opera, Internet Explorer 6 and Firefox (latest version)

    I tried everything there but nothing resolves my problem I hope you the information I provided helped.

    Thanks

    You are certain that this:
    Firewall: Norton Internet Security 2004
    is not the problem? It is known to be … the culprit on many occasions.

    Norton Internet Security 2004 was the problem for me just recently. I had turned my firewall off, and still had the problem. For kicks, I went through NIS and added my site every option. Problem went away. yeah, I know, that doesn’t make sense.

    Hi,

    I have this problem too. Just installed newest release of WP.
    Tried with FF, Opera and IE6. Get this all over the place,
    meaning I can’t do jack sh*t with the blog.

    I’ve tried all of the things from https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Enable_Sending_Referrers – nothing works. It should be noted though, that the ZoneAlarm Pro guide doesn’t help at all, since there’s no menus called what the guide calls them. I even tried shutting ZoneAlarm off. Didn’t make a difference.

    Take a look here:

    Please read ALL the page and if needed contact the author first.

    (Google ‘Kerio firewall’. It’s free and about a zillion times better than ZA)

    Zone Alarm
    Anything at all with the name ‘Norton’ in it.

    Be nice to your PC.
    Remove them.

    There are freeware alternatives that actually work.

    ZoneAlarm works just fine. I’m interested in a solution, not
    your firewall religious beliefs.

    Look at the link in my post?
