The server is configured to not respond to requests where the referrers are from an external site.

So it will respond only if:

  1. You have no referrer (which is the case when you enter the URL yourself in the browser's URL bar)
  2. Your referrer is that website only (which is the case if you click that link from that website itself)

It is possible, that the sites check the HTTP referer.

If you open the link in a window and paste the URL, the referer is empty. If you click on a link, the URL of the site containing the link will be in the referer.
