Neo and ZAP...again *sigh*

I'm once again getting "Oops! You have been directed to this page
from the wrong place..." page that appears to be common when running a
firewall.

Happens on Taelia, Snowager, Tombola, Coltzan...basically all the
dailies and one quest (this does not happen on kitchen quests,
esophagor or brain tree).

It just started at the beginning of the month.

I do have ZAP...I've checked and rechecked, and neopets.com has all
permissions (in other words, nothing has changed). Could it have
something to do with my massive hosts file? (but if it did, this would
have started earlier, as that also has not changed for a good month or
so).

Using the Opera browser, that happens to me if if I've disabled
"referrer logging" - maybe your browser or firewall has something
along those lines?

I got that yesterday for the first time in ages. Just did a reboot and
all was back to normal again.

I have ZoneAlarm too, not Pro though, and I don't get that message very
often. But sometimes I do, and it is when this happens: when at work I
use a tunnel-proxy for Neopets and a normal proxy for our web-based
progs. When I am playing games like Pyramids or Cheat and I get a call,
I have to switch proxies (long live Firefox LOL) when after the call I
switch back and re-login I get that message.
I still have no idea why that happens.
