I've never had a problem with the forum up until last night. All of the sudden whenever I try to mark all forums as read I get an error that the request cannot be submitted because a Security Token is Invalid. Has anyone else seen this? Is this a problem with the site or is it just me? Just so you know, I am not paranoid and do not think I have been hacked or have a virus:D. Just curious as to whether something broke on the forum or with Firefox on my Mac.

Thanks

Edit: I get the error message with Safari as well

I'd have to go back and look, but I believe there were scheduled updates being done to the forum last night.

I tried logging out, clearing cookies and cache and restarting Firefox and still get the same error.
