   Please help, I'm just entering the 15th hour of trying to fix this.

   As I write a new post, all seems well until an image of the front page appears to the right of the editor. After that the post cannot be saved or published. I have completely reinstalled Wordpress 2.5.1 using Fantastico and manually installed 2.6. It happens in IE and Firefox and I've tried 3 different computers.

   It usually takes a minute or two before the prob appears - see for yourself-

   Do we all have the podpress plugin installed?

   I went through disactivating/activating my plugins, including podpress and when podpress was deactivated the ability to do a new post in IE7 returned.

   I haven't added any plug-ins. I assume it doesn't install with any already included???

   Hmmm... that reminds me of cases where the host set security too sctrict.

   Try uploading a .htaccess file into the wp-admin directory (NOT ate the root!) that contains this:
   

   <IfModule mod_security.c>
   SecFilterInheritance Off
   </IfModule>

   Thank you, but exactly how, pls.

   I know how to ftp to the wp-admin directory, but how do I create a .htaccess file?

   Sorry, my knowledge level is LOW

   Notepad.
   Create a new file.
   Copy/paste the code from above. Save.
   Upload to wp-admin/.
   Rename it .htaccess
   Done.

    And until you learn some basic website management... don't ever cry "bug".

    Ahh but I got your attention! For which I am VERY grateful.

    It appears you have solved the problem. There just is no substitute for knowledge.

    Thank you very much!

    Not really. I could have answered this earlier but I usually ignore topics where newbies talk about "bugs".
