Ooops! File not found?

I keep getting this message every time I try to visit the RPoL homepage.  I'm not sure what's going on here; it's only the homepage.  Am I the only one seeing this?

Change the link on your homepage, or whatever is sending you to that link to

www.rpol.net

That's all you need.

Re: Ooops! File not found?

It's not a link.  When I google it and click on the result, I get the error message.  When I'm elsewhere on the site and I click on the RPoL logo in the left corner, I get the error message.  The only way I can get to the homepage is by hitting 'relog' on the error page and then favoriting the homepage once it logs me in.  After that I can get to the homepage through the link in my favorites, but once I'm on RPoL if I click away from the homepage I can only get back to it by hitting the 'back' button.  The internal site links to the homepage don't seem to be working for me at all.

I use the hyphenit site, too, and I'm not getting that response.  All the links are working fine on my side of things.

Have you tried clearing your cookies and logging out then logging back in?

Your ISP is the culprit. Try clearing your cache. :)

Re: Ooops! File not found?

And just to confirm, I'm seeing no issues with any of the links on the "real" RPoL.net (ie: the non-hyphenit version).

Re: Ooops! File not found?

Figures it would be my ISP...even purchasing the fastest 'package' available it still seems determined to irk me.  I habitually clear all that stuff, but going through and doing it again will likely solve the problem if I'm the only one getting the error message.

In reply to Silver_Cat (msg # 3):

Something definitely screwy going on with your ISP there.  RPoL's never had that URL available (we've never used cgi-bin, let alone a file within) and Google certainly doesn't have a link to that as our home page, so something is interferring with your search results as well as links within the site.

I'd check with your ISP as others have suggested, but I'd also probably put on my slightly paranoid hat and do a scan with Malwarebytes(.org).
