Topic: 403 Permission Denied when including IMG BBCode from PhotoBucket

Many of my users use photobucket to include images in their posts using img BBCode.  As of a couple of days ago, all was working well...then inexplicably new threads that included img BBCode from PhotoBucket gave 403 Permission Denied errors.  I may have updated a couple of extensions but none that should have an effect on this behavior.  Any ideas what might be going on?

Also, this only affects new posts...older posts that already include img coding are working just fine.

...I just checked my error_log files and they are pretty much filled up with "PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library" errors, so I'm not discounting something wrong on with the server settings.

Thanks in advance.

OK, update...

NO links whatsoever, BBCode or not, can be included in a post without getting the 403 error.

OK, update...

Links WITHOUT "http://" work fine, those WITH "http://" fail...  ???

http://www.google.com

will fail with a 403 error.

www.google.com

will work.

RESOLVED.

Got on my server host chat support and they ran some voodoo and fixed it in like 5 minutes.  I was afraid to ask what they did!  HA!
