Hello,

I have one IIS6 (w2003) with HotlinkBlocker running. Everything is running fine except one thing. When I activate the Hotlink Blocker (Version 1.4.0.55) two cookies are written for my phpBB site, and some logins fail with no error message. Most times you need to login two times, sometimes more often, to get the login.

This behaviour just occures, when more than 3 sites on the IIS use the same Signature. When only 3 or less sites use the same signature this doesn't happen. Is there a limit, so that the handling fails?

This is the log of such occurence, everything looks fine.

Now I have turned of the Hotlink Blocker for the forth side, as it is only my testside for the one where the log comes from, but it is a strange behaviour. Perhaps it is a bug? I don't know. I'm sure this is a rare use of the hotlink blocker, just wanted to let you know.

Hi,

I haven't fully tested it with the new version, but it seems that this behaviour is gone with the newer version. Do you have a newsletter about newer versions of your products?
