   try checking your htaccess file, if you changed it recently it might be the problem.
   also try consulting your hosting provider, it might be a problem with the server.

   Yep, checked htaccess:

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /dev/
   RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /dev/index.php [L]
   </IfModule>
   # END WordPress

   Can you tell there´s something wrong going on?
   I´ll check if I have an earlier backup version

   What exactly was the situation on the server side?

   And what did your host change to resolve it?

   Thank you,
   Adam

   @Adam:

   The situation on the server side was that they had implemented an extra security feature, the mod_security rule, guess to prevent recent hacker attacks as they said.

   To resolve this, I had to login to my domain hosting service and disable "Extra Web Security", then the error stopped coming up. Though, it lasted 48hours+ to had this solved from problem detection to hosting support response... But it´s all cool now.
   Thanks,
   Hélio

   Thanks for your response, Helio.

   I was also able to resolve my issue by unchecking the "Extra Web Security" box within my Dreamhost hosting account.
