I don't know if anyone is having the same problems but I have been trying for almost a week to post on Yetizone and always get an error message - Internal server error. If anyone can get a message to Ian about this so he can get it fixed...

I've just tried again and the same error. This has been happening for 4 or 5 days. I have tried two different pc's and it always fails. I have had no problems in the past.

Tried again today to post to Yetizone. Same error from Zeus. Can someone email Ian for me to say this is happening - Internal server error.

I suspect it is something broken with the antispam filter that make the script crap out and return the server error. I just tried to recreate the problem - see my post here (http://www.yetizone.com/wwwboard/messages/53678.shtml). The first time I tried I got the same error, but then I removed the string "(http 500 error?)" and it worked OK.
I'd suggest having a close look at your post content, and try simplifying/changing it a bit to see if you can persuade it to work.

Thanks Oli. It is all working now. The problem was due to me having the word "software" in the text of my message and that failed Ian's spam filter. Just imagine if Microsoft manufactured cars. "Engine failure: Error code 517834B: Contact your local Microsoft dealer." instead of "You've run out of fuel!"
