Default Page Not Found

I have been getting frequent Page Not Found error messages when navigating this forum. Is there something different here than at flickr or other forums that causes this error?

The reason I am asking is that I do not have this problem on other forums.

Has anyone else the same problem or had experienced the problem and was able to get a fix?

Please help.

We've been having some issues since the server meltdown about a week ago. Fixes are still happening. For some people, Shift+Refresh is helping the problem when they get the error. In the meanwhile, bear with us as the problem is being worked on.

I find the way round it is to R click and choose open in a new window...a nuisance but it works for me

I have found that hitting "refresh" (F5) works for me, though I sometimes have to do it several times to have any effect.

I thank you all for the hints on dealing with it. Do you find that when you enter a thread that the forum does not recognize you as being logged on?

Oh well. It looks like the gremlins are alive and well here. I am a retired computer programmer and I certainly empathize with the people trying to effect a cure (eradication?).

I hope their day is enjoyable despite the problems plaguing them.
