 * I am attempting to install WP for a new website, but when I go to [http://lacrossemma.com/wp-admin/install.php](http://lacrossemma.com/wp-admin/install.php)
   I keep getting an Error 404 message. I have reviewed everything that I’ve done
   up to this point, and it does not appear that I’ve left anything out. I’ve even
   started over a few times.
 * Any thoughts?

 * Your whole site is a 404. Are you sure you’re uploading the files to the right
   place?

 * Hi, my site is at ClosetDaydreamer.com and I’ve been getting an Error 404 on 
   my main page for several days. It happened all out of a sudden even though I 
   have not posted anything recently.
    whenever i try to go to my site, it redirects
   me to…

    [http://closetdaydreamer.com/UdKRM/](http://closetdaydreamer.com/UdKRM/)
 * as you can see, the letters behind are added behind and just keep changing randomly.
   even with my admin pages, random letters get slotted in when i try to load them,
   for example,
    [http://closetdaydreamer.com/LmhmY/wp-admin/widgets.php](http://closetdaydreamer.com/LmhmY/wp-admin/widgets.php)
 * i’ve tried updating my theme, playing around with the permalinks, updating wordpress
   to 3.0, but nothing really changes.
 * I would really appreciate some help. Thank you in advance!!!
