If you believe the security rule is affecting the normal operation of your website, contact your host support team and provide detailed instructions how to recreate this error. 
They will be able to assist you with rectifying the problem and adjusting the security configuration if needed.

I'm getting this message when trying to change my signature in the user CP.
Any ideas as to why?

Your host likely has mod_security or some other WAF (Web Application Firewall) in place which is detecting a false positive when updating your signature. As the message says, you should contact your host to try and resolve the issue.
