Ok just tried the first link and got this :

[Guest RB26DETT]

only got the mic checks.

[ExplosiveGoats]

Got the Anti leech for first one now and Mic thing for second.

[Iced_Bullet]

I get leeching notice when I copy and paste either of the URL and then get the MC thing when I click either of them :)

[ShadowGT]

First time was Anti Leech, Second time was 1, 2, 3 testing ;)

 

Same.

[t.]

I copied the first one, and clicked the second as asked and got the same each time :S

[hesonly5]

It would appear that if you copy them into your browser url and hit enter, you get the Anti-Leech notice, and if you click them you get the mic check notice.

[TimBud]

Yep, Anti leech then mic check

[Eudemon]

It would appear that if you copy them into your browser url and hit enter, you get the Anti-Leech notice, and if you click them you get the mic check notice.

And that's what should happen, thanks!

You do know they're the same right? ;)

[hesonly5]

And that's what should happen, thanks!

 

Fighting against the leechers, eh?

Assuming you're just checking the HTTP Referer, that can easily be faked with things such as RefControl for FF and could become a pain to manage if the list of valid referer URIs ever grows. It would probably be better (IMHO) to require that the user is logged in and validate their session instead (assuming the session cookie is valid for tdu-central.com and not just forum.tdu-central.com, which would also make it valid for dl.tdu-central.com).

 

Just my $0.02.

Yeah not many people know how to do that because you can get into member areas of websites without being a member if you know how but it does get complicated

[Sensei]

Yup :) I was just making sure ;)

 

btw, I'm round Sensei's if you hadn't guessed xD

That's confusing, Sensiced.

Ahhhh I have RefControl on, that'll be why I always see the anti leech and not the Mic check. Thanks.
