I get a forbidden message that doesn't allow me to post

Hey there!

I don't know why this is happening, but everytime I try to post my fic, it gives me a "forbidden message", sort of those messages of "Error 404, page not found". This is the second board where it happens, and I was assuming that it was because the chapter was too long, but it turns out that even if I'm only posting two pages, it still won't allow me to post.

Anyone has any clue why this is happening?? It's very frustrating...

The board software has been updated and should get rid of that problem. Try deleting your cookies and logging in again. Have you changed any settings on your browser or updated Windows? Sometimes when Windows updates, it changes the setting in IE to a more strict security setting. Check that to make sure your cookies will be enabled and saved. Clear your cache and temporary internet files. If, after all of that it still doesn't work, post what browser you're using, the exact error and what you were doing (and what forum you were trying to post it) when you got the error. We'll get it fixed!

I did all that, before I posted the message.. I am using Internet Explorer and this is the message I am getting

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /phpbb/posting.php on this server.

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

When you get that weird debugging message, remember to check to see if your message posted anyway, because usually it did. If you try again you wind up with a double post. It's happened to me.
