Your hosting company probably blacklisted your IP

(I'm assuming it's not on your localhost)

I used to have this issue too and it only occurred on the Admin Settings page after saving. Changing permissions of every folder and file didn't fix it.

After about a year of searching for a fix and having to manually make edits directly to my database, I contacted my hosting company about it and they said my IP was blacklisted. All they had to do was allow a set of IP addresses and I haven't had the issue ever since.

So contact your hosting company about it. And be as specific as possible with them.
