[len]

Hi
I've just installed version 1.8.15
when I try and register I get the below message.

Try going to Admin CP --> Configuration --> Server & Optimization Settings
Set Gzip Compression to "No"

As this is during the same installation as your other problem, you can keep them all in one thread and not make separate threads.

Do you have "Stop Forum Spam" (ACP --> Configuration --> Stop Forum Spam) switched on? If so, I'd suggest adjusting the settings for it accordingly so you can test.
