VB and VBA are NOT helping me at all, only sending me the same instructions over and over again, that I keep doing over and over, but it is not working or fixing my problem. Each one keeps saying it is the OTHER site that should be helping me.

I have my CMPS back up and is my home page (index.php), but when I click on FORUMS(index2.php) it gives me this:

....you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system? 
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation. 
Log Out Home

I have searched ALL over and CAN NOT find where to fix this or get any help for it. Can someone PLEASE help me with this. I've submitted support tickets on all three sites and am getting nothing.

Also, I have even tried renaming my forums page (index2.php) to just index.php and my cmps to (indextemp.php) so that my redirect from HTML would direct STRAIGHT to the forums, but it STILL is giving me the "...you don't have permission to access this page" as ANY usergroup.

I know the forums are there, because I can access them on the FORUM JUMP menu on the "...you don't have permission" page.

WTF??!! Please help, have been having this problem for a week since upgraded from 3.0.7 to 3.5.4
