Can you list what is in your .htaccess file? It may be necessary to change some of it.
Here it is:
Options -MultiViews +FollowSymlinks -Indexes
#
# If mod_security is enabled, attempt to disable it.
# - Note, this will work on the majority of hosts but on
# MediaTemple, it is known to cause random Internal Server
# errors. For MediaTemple, please remove the block below
#
<IfModule mod_security.c>
# Turn off mod_security filtering.
SecFilterEngine Off
# The below probably isn't needed, but better safe than sorry.
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
# Some hosts require RewriteBase to make RewriteRules work.
RewriteBase /forums/
