 * Thank you for posting this; I am experiencing the exact same problems.
 * I have installed the latest WordPress and everything works perfectly except for
   the Permalinks. Whenever I adjust to anything except for the default, it results
   in a 404 error. I have tried every fix suggested in the Codex and in dozens of
   postings about this topic. None work.
 * The installation did not create a .htaccess file, so I added a blank one. I have
   set the permissions to allow changes to the file, but when I adjust to a different
   permalink setting, it seems that nothing is written to the .htaccess file.
 * I am also using a GoDaddy Windows Virtual Dedicated Server. I have seen postings
   about problems with GoDaddy and with Windows (instead of Linux), but I need to
   keep this server because I have other sites running on it.
 * What else could it possibly be? Are there places where I can speak with someone
   on the phone or offer access to my site to see if anyone can troubleshoot this?
   Many thanks.
