MS has handed you a nightly update change to your security settings.  

Likely MS is now looking for "MS registrations and approvals" that Jon doesn't use as this site runs on YaBB freeware.   Therefore this site's forum is now "forbidden" to you as a loyal MS user, for your own good of course.        

It may be that a virus or other illness was attached to a picture or in something else referred to by another forum member that has caused the forum portion to be "forbidden" to you by MS as the bad thing was found there.

You need to write down the information that flashes up on the forbidden screen and then do some web searches on it -- nothing happens just to you, it happens to LOTS of people and the "how to fix it"  becomes quickly known.

Step 1 is to turn your machine completely off, count to 10 and turn it back on again.  Forcing a cold boot reload of Windows fixes many small problems and is always worth doing as a first step.


========================================


I downloaded and ran ClamAV on my Linux box, not because I need it but because Windows people need for us Linux people to not be transmitting viruses to you (we can't get them, but you can).  

Scan came up clean, I am not a "virus pusher".      

It could be your browser or your anti virus software.  I use windows, 7 and 10, and don't have any troubles with the log in but my browser, Fire Fox, gives me a warning when I log onto this site because it feels that the site is not as secure as it should be.

The same error as this thread.

Kris,

Try a different browser.

I usually use Google Chrome to log on to this forum.

If you can log in at work but not at home with the same device, then it's the router/wifi.  And as was stated before, Yabb doesn't have the right security certs.  Log in to your router and see it's locked you out.

You might start by writing down the make and model number of the router.  Also, is this router one that you purchased or does it belong to the cable company.  Once you have more information you could post it on a forum where they discuss such issues.  You might find those forums by posting your question in different ways on Google and see where it leads you.  If the modem is owned by your cable operator they may have remotely updated the router software and caused the problem.

My cable company is a local company and it is easy to talk to a tech and they can usually solve any problem even when it is with my own equipment.  But I have heard that it is nearly impossible to get such assistance from the large companies.

its also possible that your ip address has been put on a blacklist for ddos attacks and other stuff by the server host. this does not mean you have done anything, you could have a infected computer/device thats pinged the server to many times and been blocked as a result or someone using your current ip address has done so and been blacklisted.
unless you have a static ip address assigned it "usually costs extra and you would have to request it" you can unplug your modem from the power and unplug either the cable/telephone cable from the modem and leave it overnight "do this before midnight"
in the morning plug it back in and you should get a new ip address as most isp's use dynamic ranges.

ip address is a number that basically identifies you on the internet.
is this the only site you have issues with?
