  • Does it really matter?Just use the .Org one,and it doesnt matter.And foreign here in computer means that the account is wrong.Some users live in Portugal...USA...Canada...Japan...Asia....everywhere.

    ok it works now because I ran the norten virus program and when it was finished I reset the computer and now it works but this morning when I woke up and tried to get on it said: posts from foreign users is forbidden at PC.

    EDIT: there was no virus I just ran it to be safe but now it works and if it stopped working again I'd copy the URL thing and get on the .ORG version and show you.

  • Ctrl + Print Screen / SysRq
    Open up MS Paint
    Ctrl + V
    Save as .JPG or .PNG
    Upload to image host (ie, imageshack.us, photobucket.com)

    That's how you can take a screen of the problem you're having.

  • That used to happen to me a lot when I used Firefox.
    And when I did manage to login, it'd log me out again. O.o

    That foreign thing just shows a blank white page with the words "POST requests from foreign hosts are not allowed." in Times New Roman (or at least I think it's Times New Roman o.O).

    Maybe you should use a different net browser. I use Opera now, instead of Firefox and Internet Exploder. @.@
    I know alot of people here use Firefox and IE (dunno why they would but meh o.o) and have no problems, but I just thought it may have something to do with it, and it's worth a try seeing if another browser works.

    Or you could try deleting all your cookies and logging in again.
