I have cleared the cache, both server side and browser. rebooted server. Waited a couple of hours, to see if the token refreshes. Nothing seems to fix it.
Even placed the website into safe mode, didn't fix the error.
Any ideas? Unable to do anything in the admin area. Actually I can't do anything on the site at all.
I then went and tried to register another name and get the following after accepting my sites terms.
A POST request was made with a non-recognised security token; this has been blocked as it represents a security threat.

It's a weird one. It may be something to do with ModSecurity or Suhosin altering the requests, or our workaround to that being incompatible with our POST token security somehow.
Is it possible I could get admin access to the install to run some tests?
If so please email me at chris@ocproducts.com and I'll make sure whatever it is is resolved.
Best,
Chris

Everything seems ok for the moment. Hopefully it was a once off glitch.
Thankyou very much for the offer, if it happens again I will send through the details.
