That kind of message will occur on sites that use Referrer Protection for
their content. So, either the protection is misconfigured, or you are
blocking referrer information that your browser would normally send. One
of the biggest causes of the latter is Norton Personal Firewall (Which
really does break some things well. :) )
A good way to test if you block referrer information is to head to
Playmouse.com's galleries and see if the images there are broken. If they
are, then you're blocking, and a lot of sites may fail to work.
