Q. I am not receiving any e-Mail messages from or about Brisbane HOG.
A. Your e-Mail address is not on the Webmasters bulk e-Mail list, the link for this is in the members area on the main menu.
Q. I am trying to complete my application for a Password and I keep on getting the reply "BAD REFERER" :
A. Reason: This is usually a Firewall problem;
The correct fix is to add www.brisbanehog.com.au to your list of trusted sites in your Firewall software.
Another solution is to disable the Firewall during the log in process which will make this problem go away. Please remember to turn your firewall back on (renable) once completed.
Please note: it is never a "best practice" to disable a firewall whilst connected to the internet.
If you have a problem not listed here please feel free to e-Mail the Webmaster.
