Question My problem or GoDaddy?

www.ibmjunkman.com. Click on the card image. Then click on Comment in upper right. You will get a screen with 7 images and a statement saying to click on one of them.

Randomly, when you do, you will get an error:

Validation of viewstate MAC failed.

As I understand it. the page was sent with a given machinekey but the page the server got back does not have the correct key. I have no control of machinekey on a shared server. GoDaddy is saying it is something in my code.

I am not a coder. I will be discussing this with my guy. Is GoDaddy blowing me off?
 
I think I fixed it. I ignored GoDaddy and did what ChatGPT said to do and put machinekey logic in web.config. Both in the root of my site and in each page. It seems to work now.
