Older Nov 17, 2009 issue 1 (403 errors) commented on by oggerg - You know what, my assessment is wrong. After more research, it seems like this 403 error has been an issue for years. The problem seems to be with the way the checksum is calculated on servers (and specifically, the versions of software (apache) they were running). I tried using the code from mh2k, and it works. So if anyone is running into the 403 problem, maybe try mh2k code. Good luck! http://www.hm2k.com/projects/pagerank You know what, my assessment is wrong.
