Fxgator:

I haven’t tried this so i don’t know if it works or not…

Normal cookie drop does this…

Forum -> your server -> drops cookie

You could try…

Forum -> Obfuscated Server -> (301 redirects to) your server -> drops cookie

That way you have put an extra server in the way which might show up as the referring site?

Try it and let me know if it works.

Comment on Boot Camp Assistant crashes during partition by Chewie

Hi NRA:

Unfortunately, i don’t think that it is that easy.

What you will probably have to do is create another partition that you will be using for your Linux install and then restart and boot from the Linux DVD to install onto that partition. You could try it from boot camp, but i think it may need to be done manually.

The problem is that i do not know if you will then be able to select the linux install when booting up the Mac with the option key pressed.

I found some information here but its pretty low level stuff and can get complicated…

If you do try it then please come back and let me know how you get on. As i say i have not tried this so i dont know how successful it will be.

Andre: I guess you could drop an image that calls your URL first, and then that URL calls the cookie url to drop. Then the referrer should look like your own legit site.”

Can you explain how to actually do that?

Thanks.
