But I don't use an http_referer on any of my pages, it was never there in the first place and I just checked some other forms, mine and others, and none of them have anything to do with an http_referer in them. I wouldn't know what the heck to do with an http_referer having no experience with something like this. So, in a way, I understand what you're saying the error msg does appear to be looking for what you said, but if it was never there before and the form worked, why now is it suddenly not working for a reason that was never there and worked before?

I think that the page is looking for the HTTP_REFERER header and doesn't find it. You won't get an HTTP_REFERER when you open the browser and type the address directly. You'll get one though if you clicked a link to get there or a form did or by some other means like redirection.
Basically the page os looking for that header and is not finding it and is thus telling you that you can't go further.
Check the spelling, HTTP_REFE*R*ER and not HTTP_REFE*RR*ER and if you are using this to check wether a form was submitted or not it may be better to use the CONTENT_LENGTH header.
