I have wwf installed on my site. The problem is that most ISP's treat forum emails from my site as SPAM. I do not know how to fix this problem. I did have the site at http://www.kasl.biz - www.kasl.biz , but have moved it to http://www.kaslcomputers.com - www.kaslcomputers.com to get rid of the .biz part of it that ISP's block.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Wont really matter. Most ISP Blocks will work on on IP Address, relaying SMTP host etc.

Eg, your IP Address hasn't changed. If you lookup on both domains you get:

[craig@ns1 craig]$ host 65.104.32.146
146.32.104.65.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer w146.z065104032.pdx-or.dsl.cnc.net.

[craig@ns1 craig]$ host http://www.kaslcomputers.com - www.kaslcomputers.com
http://www.kaslcomputers.com - www.kaslcomputers.com is an alias for mercury.kaslcomputers.com.
mercury.kaslcomputers.com has address 65.104.32.146

[craig@ns1 craig]$ host http://www.kasl.biz - www.kasl.biz
http://www.kasl.biz - www.kasl.biz is an alias for mercury.kasl.biz.
mercury.kasl.biz has address 65.104.32.146

Additionally it appears you are hosting on a "dynamicIP Address block" .. this will also result in most ISP's worldwide banning EMail from you.

Go to http://openrbl.org/ - http://openrbl.org/ and enter in your IP Address / Domain name. You are currently listed in 3 cases.

PS. Who do you use as your SMTP relay? ie, in IIS what do you use for your smarthost ... or equivalent. It could be that they are listed as well ... which will stop Emails from your Site.
