Its passworded, but once you get inside the error is:

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in a CGI script.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.


How would I activate CGI in XAMPP if its not allready? or what is another fix?
That's not really a MyBB specific error; That looks more like an Apache error to me.

Does your host have anything like mod_security installed?
Not sure. How would I find out?
Create a php_info(); file, and you should be able to tell from that. It'll be an apache module...

By which he means this:
create a file named info.php
<?php
     php_info();
?>

Upload it to your webserver, browse to it from your browser ( http://myurl.com/info.php )
And check the Loaded Modules list from the apache2handler section of the output. If you see mod_security or mod_security2 then you have it.
I get Fatal Error: Call to undefined function php_info() in C:/xampp/htdocs/info.php on line 2
Well. You've not got something setup right then.

Since this is XAMPP, I've gotta ask, are you running this yourself, or a friend?
Myself and I found out that mod secruity wasnt installed, so i installed, but the admin directory is still not accessable.
Does php info have a _ in it?? I though it was just phpinfo()

If you're using XAMPP you'll only be using this on a loclahost, you don't really need mod_security if you're only accessing it on your computer...
No I made it into vhost.....so I have it set where it can be reached by domain.. http://scifi-zone.net

So, its not just localhost anymore. I installed modsecurity in boredom though.

The problem still exists though.
