Bad Ass M 5 Posted December 12, 2003 CID Share Posted December 12, 2003 Did you just start running a proxy of some sort... or any other software that might mask your referer Installed Norton System works, would that cause this? Should I disable when running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA3LE Posted December 12, 2003 CID Share Posted December 12, 2003 Exactly! Norton has firewall software in that suite I believe. Disable it when testing, otherwise you will not be given an auth code when testing. The way that my results script checks the authenticity of a post is by checking to make sure that the request for results is posted by testmy.net (and no someones home computer trying to cheat)... proxy and firewall software can mask the referer ~ Although, hardware routers will have no problem getting clean results. I also do this because of proxy software that will cache the download files and show higher results than they should be. Let me know if turning off norton fixed it for you - Damon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Ass M 5 Posted December 14, 2003 CID Share Posted December 14, 2003 You were right Damon, disabling my Norton System Works allowed the test to become validated. Thought I would show off my upload speed for a change. Thanks for your help and your efforts with this site, I would venture to say it is one of the best.

HoPE Posted December 15, 2003 CID Share Posted December 15, 2003 well to increase your speed, set the recieve window to a higher value, to do this you will need a program like dr.tcp and once you set it all it takes is a reboot and youll be going faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
