Default Re: Hiding the referer - Is there one way that always works?

Hi, there are ways to hide the referer OR set the referer as being a specific page.

When a person clicks on a link on one page to go to another page the referer will be the page where the person clicked. So in answer to

Quote:
Say I and sending the keyword from adwords thru to my landing page, when someone clicks the affiliate link on my landing page, will the affiliate network see my keyword?
In this instance the referer *will be* the page where the person clicked through.

Referer leak happens when you force a user through from one site to another site automatically without forcing the person to click on a link. e.g. Meta refresh, Javascript document.location / server-side redirects etc will all leak the referer.
