For some reason, when I start certian surveys I get a forbidden site..like it's a virus, spam, or something. Does anyone get this as well?

Nope. And McAfee (my antivirus) is the most paranoid one I've ever come across. Check your firewall settings.

Usually getting a "Forbidden" response to a server request means there was a connection error and you should try again.

If you're on a wireless router, just make sure your router didn't lose a connection before you submit.

But yeah, I forgot to consider the router issue

If you're on a home computer, I'd agree with the others about checking your router and/or your ISP.  However, if you're on a work or public computer, dont forget that Admins can use a "Surf Control" type of function that will block sites w/ certain words in the address or even content on the site.  I can do much of my daily offers while at work, however, I just mark the offers I cant do or that require a download & then I can quickly get to them at home to finish up my offers. :)

Right, particularly at school. Usually the school technology people will block a lot of sites, mainly ones that don't have anything to do with learning.
