    looks like your permalinks don't work
    try resetting them or check if host has mod_rewrite off

    ya....i found something here...

    I did what you said and it worked fine.....
    I changed 'month and names' to 'default' in settings->permalinks->commonsettings. That changed http://vidblades.co.cc/join/ to http://vidblades.co.cc/?page_id=7.....

    But I when I changed 'Default' to 'months and names', Same problem too came back.

    I prefer 'months and names' in the settings because something like http://vidblades.co.cc/?page_id=7 doesnt make any sense....

    You need to configure the mod_rewrite settings in .htaccess file. Without this the permalinks will not work.

    I found .htaccess file using filezilla(Ftp client). But cannot change file permission to 666. Filezilla's response is "550 Could not change perms on .htaccess: Operation not permitted". What should I do now?

    I cant chmod .htacess file. Please tell how to do that. My Ftp client reply is:"550 Could not change perms on .htaccess: Operation not permitted".
