Word with brackets triggers 404 error upon save (4 posts)

    First time ever received 'page not found 404 error' when clicking 'save draft', 'publish' (from new post) or 'update' (if i had already published post without bracketted word). Traced back my steps, deleted 1 word in brackets and error no longer appeared. Funny thing is, i have another word, same post, with brackets and that doesn't trigger an error message? I'm sure it's that because i've tested inserting and removing the word and it happens as above every time.

    Ahhh that's an evil mod_security issue :(

    It's not you, it's your server. Read http://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-mod-security?replies=16

    You may need to get your host to help if you don't have access to whitelist.conf :/

    Ok great. I'm glad you knew what i was talking about. I may just avoid brackets for now and try the odd sneaky one here and there. Thank you for the quick response! :)
