I can't seem to post to my original topic....I keep getting the "forbidden" message

I'm assuming you were logged in first, before trying to post? Otherwise, I have no idea as I've never seen that problem before. :-\

I'm not sure what to do..I can reply to this, but not the original topic!!

I've never gotten that error message but I do sometimes have problems with the forum. Clear out your cookies, close your browser, log back into the board, then try posting again.

It's weird! I can post to these messages but not to the PE topic. Here's my error:

"You don't have permission to access /forum/index.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

I'll clear my cookies and try logging in again. Thanks for you patience!

I've never had any problems, ever, that I can remember. But then again, my browser automatically cleans it's temp files and cookies as soon as I close it, so maybe that's why...

Forbidden

I think it's catching. That's what I got when trying to respond to the post! I don't think this site likes me.

Use THIS program regularly.

You don't know how funny it is that you pointed me to that site. I use it everyday at work to help with virus/spyware removals. Great program!

Thanks, guys! I've downloaded and have already ran the program.

I think it is an issue with the forum. I ran into this error a couple of days ago while trying to reply to a post. I'm going to try and find a fix for it as soon as possible, I really do not know much about the forum scripts, etc. It's pretty complicated. Sorry for the inconvience.

I've had the 404 message quite a few times over the past couple of months.

That's so strange. I've never received any problems at all. Maybe switching to Firefox was a bad thing and I'm glad that I stayed with Maxthon... LOL
