SecFilterEngine and SecFilterScanPOST

If you require hosting to have SecFilterEngine Off or SecFilterScanPOST Off, do not worry.

Those rules apply to Apache 1.x, but HostGator uses Apache 2.x.

We can't completely disable mod_sec, but we can find the rules blocking your scripts (403 error) and disable those rules. Thus, we can meet these requirements.

Simply contact HostGator via phone or live chat to report mod security blockage.

Having given the livechat technician a test URL to demonstrate the problem, in less than 6 minutes he had whitelisted around my rule-hits and I was up and running.
