    You lose security benefits by doing this, but the quickest solution would be to set enableViewStateMac="false" in the web.config.

    <pages enableViewStateMac="false" ...>

    This can sometimes happen if your ViewState is very large, and you postback before the page has finished loading. If you’re using ViewState as a data repository, that’s probably why this happens. I would also inspect your markup and make sure that you don’t have any unclosed <script> tags.
