Validation of viewstate MAC failed error in asp.net?

I sometimes get this error in an asp.net site that I'm developing: System.Web.HttpException: Validation of viewstate MAC failed
Do you know what that means and how to correct it? Is it someone trying to hack into the site by manipulation the viewstate?

I found this loooong thread discussing the problem and possible solutions:
http://forums.asp.net/thread/1173230.asp...
The weird thing is though, that I'm using asp.net 1.1 and they're talking about the issue happening when asp.net 2 was introduced.
Haven't gotten to try the solutions out yet...

i had a similar and I think related problem with viewstate and opera browsers.
this was solved here: http://quomon.com/viewquestion.aspx?ques...
now remains to see if it solves this issue as well.
