Thanks. I was setting up some Paypal stuff and want to make sure that the user is
actually coming from Paypal (https://www.paypal.com.....) and then come to my web page
to
ativate their account. The "return" link is on Paypal and when they click the link and
return, I checked the HTTP_REFERER and expect it to be "https://www.paypal.com..."; but
it
wasn't.
