Firefox works just fine on other sites but when I access this forum from Audacity that is the "Forbidden" warning I get. When I go to http://audacityteam.org/forum/ directly in Firefox I get the same screen. Works fine over here on Windoze machine.

I have been having a similar problem on both my Windows machines (IE vn 8). Gale Andrews advised me to use the forum address directly and not use links (entry page address is: "http://forum.audacityteam.org/" )

Using that I can get to the site, but using the links from the Audacity main site to go here or to the Wiki also gives me the 403 error.

Thanks WC............I'm on the Linux machine now, but that link did not work directly...........but kicking it around a couple of times with search engines I got in so I bookmarked it. Hopefully this is the last problem I'll encounter. Thanks again, Bob

Please see http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 32&t=44761 for the current position. In short, use

http://wiki.audacityteam.org
http://forum.audacityteam.org
http://manual.audacityteam.org

with wiki, forum or manual at the start of the address, and it should (mostly) work.
