Like 401 Unauthorized errors, error 403: Forbidden /Access Denied appear when you don’t have access on the site. For ex. if you have another internet connection via ISP, the proxy server which you have it at the old ISP, interrupts the connection and displays the error messages.

The causes are:
- Incorrectly specified a proxy server in your Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc settings.
- Require a username and password and you should pay more attention where you type these. (Attention to case sensitivity)
- Times the website server may not have the proper permissions set up on its directories
