It's an issue with mod_security that you need to talk to your host about. search

Posted 2 years ago #Oh, ok. Well, my host said she had the same problem as well. And she thought it might be a problem with Wordpress.

Are you running an Apache server? If so, I find it incredible your host doesn't know what this is.

JN - your host needs to fix the mod_security issue. That's what fixes it.
grl - the link that dr. mike provided shows *many* posts with several solutions.

Posted 2 years ago #doodlebee- that link that he posted didn't give me the answer I was looking for. it doesn't tell me what I'm supposed to do with the mod_security or anythings.

Funny. First link says "If your host is running mod-security, have them turn it off."
5th one down says to check with your host and see if you can use .htaccess to go around it.
Right there's two solutions I found in a bout 2 seconds after clicking on Dr's link. There's a whole bunch more there, too.
What other answer do you need?
