this quoted text is what i am seeing on making changes in my profile and settings of WordPress. I have gone to provided link and followed their instruction but still problem is there. i have been experiencing this problem offline(localhost) and after uploading to my server as well.
Seems this was just posted here somewhere. Anyway, I had this same probem. If you use Nortons Internet Security, you need to go to privacy settings/advanced/add site then once site is added, make sure you "allow" all permissions. Hope this helps.
