I can't post messages. What's happening ?
If you post a message and you get a response which says "not posted from the radiohead server", this can be caused by a few different things. The two main culprits are proxies and firewalls.

Zone Alarm Firewall
If you use Zone alarm and are having problems posting, this is likely down the privacy settings. If the privacy setting are enabled, Zone alarm inserts its own html code into the submit message page. The message board detects this tampering and will refuse to post a message. You need to turn off the privacy settings to get things to work properly.

Norton Firewall
The Norton personal firewall can cause this to happen as boardie LaZy found out. As soon as Norton personal firewall was turned off, LaZy was able to post again.

1. Go to norton firewall and click on 'advanced options'
2. Click on 'add site', then type in "www.radiohead.com". This will then appear in the list of websites.
3. Click on "www.radiohead.com" and tick the 'use these rules' box.
4. Change 'browsing privacy - referer' to "permit" from "block"

This will hopefully get everything working again. Thanks go to The Rickster for providing this solution.
