Was trying out the live contact api and was getting a "can't share information" error on the last confirmation page of the authentication process:

Not the friendliest error. My problem was i was running from local host. I added an entry in my host file of 127.0.0.1 www.bronwen.com and ran the code using that sitename and tada...it's happy again.

Re: Contact API - can't share information error
It does not accept host names that only have one component (e.g. localhost, foo). It also does not accept IP addresses. So a domain name that has more than one component (e.g. foo.com or even localhost.com) would work provided you hook up the name to your IP address in your hosts file. The hosts file typically resides in the system32\drivers\etc folder.
