    Just installed SemanticScuttle and I'm unfortunately having issues with it. Whilst the installation has gone well and general use is fine, I'm having trouble getting my bookmarklet to work.

    Whenever I try to add a bookmark I get redirected to the SemanticScuttle 403 page. After a little testing, I can see that:

    http://mysite/bookmarks.php/user?action=add&address=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bbc.co.uk

    will throw the error, but

    http://mysite/bookmarks.php/user?action=add&address=http%3A%2F%2Fwwwbbccouk

    will 'work' (it is of course a nonsense address as the dots have been removed, but it successfully goes to the links page).

    The only difference between the two is that I have removed the dots in the address.

    Suggestions on what's wrong and how to fix it?

    Apparently I'm also getting issues when searhing for system:unfiled:

    Not Acceptable! An appropriate representation of the requested resource could not be found on this server. This error was generated by Mod_Security.

    I have no idea if these are related or not.

    As seenms often the case, it was caused by mod_security rules set by my shared hosting provider. They added the site to their whitelist and all worked well.
