Sometimes it's triggered falsely by certain keywords. Since you are having problems with one particular post, it's likely that mod_security is causing it.
You can disable mod_security by putting these lines in a .htaccess file in the root of your forum -

<IfModule mod_security.c> SecFilterScanPOST Off </IfModule>
