Hello, we are getting a "Forbidden" error when Browscap attempts to verify the user agent. Our webhosting tech support recommended that we block xmlrpc.php requests for security reasons, might this be interfering with Browscap? If so, perhaps a note to that effect could be included in the documentation (or am I missing it?). Thx!

Are you still having this problem? Could you please let us know even if not so we can close the issue?

If so, could you clarify under what circumstances you see the "Forbidden" error? Where do you see it and what are you doing that causes it?

Browscap does not use XML-RPC so blocking xmlrpc.php shouldn't be an issue, but I'm not sure what is meant by blocking xmlrpc.php.
