I believe the last few posts in this forum is discussing the same issue.

In short:

If you want you can disable mod_security from your .htaccess file using following code :-

Code:
<IfModule mod_security.c>

    SecFilterEngine Off

    SecFilterScanPOST Off

</IfModule>
This code will disable mod_security for your account but make sure that we wont be responsible for any sorts of injections that may occur on your website hosting.
Per now eUKhost have reverted some mod_security rules which were making problems, but they haven't sorted this completely.
