macscripter.net requires a (http) Referer from osaxen.com[*]. I by
default have cross-site Referers blocked in my browser, because I see no
reason why sites should be able to track me. Telling macscripter.net
"Hi, I was referred to here by osaxen.com" makes the download work.

I won't. For several years I've tried to help truckloads of sites to fix
what they broke. 99% of them don't want to know. They just get
defensive, or don't respond at all. Helping web designers to do things
'right' is useless. I'm now taking a different approach:
<http://webrepair.org/>.
I just thought I'd mention the problem because this is your osax and you
might care that its availablity is not needlessly restricted.
[*] The 'error' page actually does say they require a Referer. I hadn't
noticed initially.
