    404 error shows in....

    .. my web logs, I have checked the site on another PC and all appears to be fine.
    This has me stumped, any suggestions as to what may be causing this?

    All links have been checked etc. (www.magicboxgifts.com is the site in question)

    Thanks

    Most decent stats packages will tell you the url the caused the problem and what the referring link was (i.e. where it came from).

    I wouldn't worry too much though. Most of them can be ignored as you'll often get errors from such things as:

    - spammers looking for open formmail scripts to spam from.
    - hackers scanning for windows vulnerabilities.
    - Search engines checking what the error page looks like.
    - etc.
    - and I forgot the favicon.ico icon when people add you to their favourites lists (the best kind of 404 error)

    It is worth checking though so a halfway decent stats package is a good idea.

      I have WebAnalyzer via my host

      do you recommend any other package or is that one adequate?
