I installed Drupal in June or July 2006. Last time I logged in was Nov 3, according to logs stored in the DB. Dec 20, 2006, I discovered that logging in was possible but not persistent - that is, as soon as I attempted to go to any admin pages, I would get a 403! It's now Dec 25 and this is still a problem!

What DIDN'T help
* Changing browsers
* Update Drupal to the latest 4.7 branch (done AFTER the problem showed up)

I didn't change anything for this to happen. Why is it happening?

Modules I have installed: aggregator, comment, contact, coolfilter, poormanscron, spam, statistics, taxonomy (and more default modules).

Also, it's a problem that I had a half-written page or two (unpublished) that now I can't access (due to the above) -- any way I can access the raw content for Drupal nodes?? I couldn't find them in the web server or in the database! please please please help!

Are you on a shared host that recently upgraded to php 5.2?

Thanks so much. I must seem really inexperienced, but I've been so frustrated!

Do you know where the raw content is stored, though, for future reference?

In Drupal 4.7, the 'raw content' of an unpublished node should be in the 'node_revisions' table of your database. Though some of the data will also be stored in the 'node' table.
