boo - What? Um...It works fine. Was it down for a second?

And that's such a bizarre error. Here's more about it:

http://www.checkupdown.com/status/E412.html

This error seldom occurs in most Web traffic, particularly when the client system is a Web browser. The problem can only be resolved by examining what your client system is trying to do then discussing with your ISP why the Web server fails the 'Precondition' specification sent by the client system.
Most commonly, this is caused by mod_security filtering. Some hosting companies use mod_security or other similar systems to block POST requests containing certain key words or suspicious symbols, in order to prevent comment spam or hack attempts. Occasionally these security rules can block legitimate requests.

I used to get them all the time too, Boo... :P try telling your firewall to allow HTTP headers through... ;)

P.S., I bet the same thing happens to you if you go to this website:

http://browsehappy.com/

ya I get the same result on that page. Anyway this is the first time I have ever experienced this error :(

What do you mean to allow HTTP headers through? Most things are allowed in my sygate firewall.

From what I understood of erissiva post, is that its an ISP issue :P

Not really.

Your firewall is blocking the header, so the site thinks you could be a security threat.
