I have gone to modthesims2 for a long time, but today, when I look at the downloads section, most of the pictures have a red X on them. When I click the picture link, it says "403 forbidden" and then something like you must supply a local referer to access (web page here). I chatted with other people on the site and they said that the pictures were there for them. Can someone help?

I do not have any kind of child blocks at all, the website just had my account screwed up for that day. It worked the next day and still does now.

Hey Dude,
For whatever reason, you can't get there.
Sometimes, your company firewall will block these sites so you can not get to them. You will get this error.
It may be that the people that are running the web site have the permissions messed up. This is probably more likely.
You have to talk with someone on the other end who knows what is going on. If you were with level 1 support, they can do not much more than answer the phone and make coffee.
Sorry dude.
Tom

Sounds like your local internet server has blocked it. Are you on a home computer or a public/elementary school one? If so, they may block sites they don't want you downloading from. If you are home, I'd make sure you don't have any Child-Internet Safety programs installed and that Google or any other Popup blocker is turned off. Otherwise, you may just wanna wait a couple of days and try again...the internet can be very strange at times
