A user got the following error message, and wasn't able to post without turning his firewall off. Obviously, he doesn't want to have to do that. He never had a problem on Classic, nor any other BB he's ever been on. He says his host is Verizon. He's going to test some Norton/Symantec settings, but in the mean time, can you recommend any? He says adding the domain name to his trusted list didn't work. Says it's not the firewall itself, but the Privacy Control feature in the Security Client.

We cannot proceed.
The host from which you are accessing the board is not recognized as a valid host. This is more than likely related to a firewall issue that is blocking the referer variable. Check your firewall settings and try again.

He adds: "It seems weird that in order to post, I have to allow it to see my browser history and such, but that's the setting it seems to need, or else I get that error. So I don't know. I don't care as long as my ports are still stealth and such, this is fine."
