Description of my issue:
Hi, after updating Admin Tools to latest version (and Joomla to 2.5.1) I am getting a 403 - access denied error with Akeeba Backup.
Thanks for any ideas to solve the issue - tried the jQuery conflict solving hints (although not probable because didn't update any other components or plugins) and the htaccess hints, but that one didn't change either... so should be something with Joomla 2.5.10 and Akeeba Backup or the lates Admin Tools version ?

The Joomla! version is irrelevant. You need to install the latest versions of Akeeba Backup and Admin Tools on your site. Also note that you may have to do the installation twice, without uninstalling, due to a Joomla! installer bug.
