I just wanted to create a new topic on Geekzone's Telecom forum, along with some jpg pictures. Once I typed my text and attached / dragged the pictures in, click post new topic, all I get is: --- Error: Your post was not accepted due to bad word: f* Error: Your post was not accepted due to bad word: s* --- But I did not write those words! Why I am getting that message? I am using Firefox 10.0.7ESR on windows 7 pro 64-bit. Can anyone tell me what is the problem?

Perhaps in ALT tags of the image?

I have tested the text with a test account and it passed without bad words. It must be something in the format as suggested. Paste it again without format and it should go.
