I had a prior ver of XOOPS running fine. 2.2.1 gives me "Referrer-checking" errors most of the time. Err message starts with

"Why am I being redirected here?

XOOPS Site site security has detected that your computer has a firewall setting that is preventing you from registering on the site. We use 'Referrer-checking' know as HTTP_REFERER which makes sure that all contents posted are from authorised users only. Your firewall settings are blocking this information, so this will prevent you from registering properly if you try and proceed."

I was using IE with the google toolbar popup blocker, but I've turned that off for now, no help. I have Zone Alarm, the most recent free version, and it does not seem to have the Privacy/Cookies area that the err msg refers to.

So I'm stuck. Kind of a strange error to get, I've never seen the like with any cms, is it worth it?

Thanks
