Hello.

I help administrate my Xbox LIVE Clans website and we have a forum with Invision Power Board 2.3.3

Lately I've been getting the error 403 Forbidden whenever I try to post any kind of link to an image. I also get errors when I try to modify my own profile and group even though I am an Admin. What's even more curious is that even the Root Admin is having these issues as well.

I'd just like to know if there is a known cause for these issues and how can I fix them?

Thanks.

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...

Did you make sure the appropriate folders are CHMOD'ed properly? This sometimes causes problems when uploading avatars or stuff.

Also I think 2.3.3 is very old and Invision has a poor record of security, so if it is possible, I would recommend making sure what version you have is up to date in terms of security or to upgrade.

Yeah, that sounds like a chmod problem. Make sure the avatar and attchements folders are writable. And if you can, upgrade your board software.
