    If you've got to hit a bad link, at least have some fun with it:

    That is a good one...I will have to give the link to my mother. She is always having problems finding sites, then calls me and I find them no problem.

      That's so funny..

      The only annoying thing with some of these sites is they code for IE and since I use Firefox, they sometimes don't work (as with this one). I had to switch to IE to see what the fun was all about.

        Speaking of 404s.. don't you hate it when people use terms like this in real life... Some time back I asked a co-worker if he had a document I needed - and after searching his desk his reply was "... um, a definite 404 on that"

              Me too. Make sure you've got the flash plugin installed (if you want it)

                  Guilty computer 404...
                  i'm sorry.
                  i can't find the file you asked for.
                  maybe you spelled the URL wrong. make sure that you typed it all in lower case.
                  it's probably my fault, though. perhaps i deleted it in a fit of anger or remorse.
                  or maybe i just made another pathetic mistake somewhere.
                  please mail me and tell me what you couldn't find, and we can go and look for it together.

                      Ran fine in my Firefox. Check the version of Flash you have, may need to update your add-in.

                        Another Firefox user with no problem, except that I hate Flash.
                        @!$#$^% Flash! Flash is a plague upon the World Wide Web!
                        Especially any site that has a "skip intro" button. The should have
                        a static home page with a "show me your dazzling but contentless
                        Flash demo" button.
