There is a line in the WAYF code that goes like this :)

/*------------------------------------------------*/
// Set P3P headers for %#!*$ IE
/*------------------------------------------------*/
header('P3P:CP="NOI CUR DEVa OUR IND COM NAV PRE"');

Probably the tests were successful because I have his line in there
(have yet to carry out a test to check if it makes a difference without
it). Don't ask me what the codes are supposed to mean and if they make
sense but I somewhere found a table that explain them more or less.
Using that I put together the above :)
