    cool thanks but is that a server side setting or should I be able to find that in the source of the script I am using?
    Could I turn it off with .htaccess

    Is it just me or is SecureGet's solicitors a little on the unprofessional side?

    ... feel the full force? I've yet to hear any real solicitor use that kind of language in a letter. They also seem to be overly harsh in their threats/requests. That being said, taking a look at Secureget.com and it's appalling design - I wouldn't be too worried. :)
