Receving "Security Error" when trying to upload images

  1. trevtest

    I'm trying to upload an image to a Post, and I'm getting an error in the image upload screen, that just says 'security error', at the time that it starts to try to 'crunch' the image. I made some updates to my blog today (updated my profile info, gravatar image, verified my blog with google and yahoo, and changed my display name.) I didn't change anything that should be related to security though, and I am able to edit posts, just can't add images suddunly. Timing seems to indicate one of the changes above caused problems though. Any ideas?

    The blog I need help with is woodnosesoccer.com.

    I am receiving the same error. I have not updated my blog, just trying to post a new entry and it won't let me upload images. Maybe a system problem?

    Seeing that this looks to be a common problem, it must be system-wide. Not sure. I can't find anything on it.
