I got to work on Monday 7/2 and discovered that I could not
post/edit in the forums. Kept getting the notice that I'm not
allowed to post/edit. Got home later in the evening and used my
dialup connection, no problems posting/editing.
This problem happens in both Navigator 4.08 and Explorer 5.5.
So did something change here in the forums?
Or do you think something changed at work?

Obviously your username is not banned, and this isn't likely to be a browser problem. If you'll email us or PM us with information about the IP at your work location, we may be able learn more about the cause. We have sometimes banned certain IP blocks because of troll infestations, and it is possible that your employer's IP falls within those blocked ranges.
