What is wrong with this website/my computer? Help!

Question

I am part of a forum online. It is normally my homepage. And now it every time change to sign in or go on. It says:

403 Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

What is wrong is it my computer? On the site, you can be banned! I am freaking out because I did nothing to get banned. Yesterday I was allowed to go on and I was gone for the whole day so what happened?

Please Help! Thank you!

Answer 1

It may not be you it may be your ISP.  Forum administrators block users with an IP address and they may have blocked the one that your computer generates.

If you have a static IP you can try to change it or try accessing the site from a different internet provider.
