You can use HTTP_REFERER, but don't expect it to be there. Browsers will
not always send that header, regardless of firewalls between them and your
server, so relying on it isn't a great idea. Sure - take advantage of it if
it's present, but don't let your code get upset if it's not there ;)

I am using the JavaMail API to send email. It seems the Message.setSentDate(new Date()) sets wrong time zone. I am at GMT+1, and this is also what the new Date() is showing. But when the message arrives the header is showing it as GMT+2. It is always showing one time zone higher also if I change my time zone to something else in windows.

I need to change the IP address of about 200 DNS records (zone files) and also increase the serial number by one for each. Is there a script out there to do this? I'm not a pro at perl scripting and my ISP has forced this on me and so I'm under pressure to get this done asap. Basically I need it done like this: 1) Look through all zone files for IP address X 2) If IP address X found, replace it with Y

Both PCs are Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2. Both have their time zone set to GMT +0 (London). And in the Date & Time control panel applet, both show "GMT Standard Time" as the Current time zone. Both have the correct...

Is there a way to add localhost to ZoneAlarm Pro so that Forms authentication will work? With ZoneAlarm enabled, authentication doesn't work. When I disable ZA, authentication works great. I added "localhost" to the Trusted Host/Site list, but that didn't seem to work.

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
