I will post this also, maybe it will help someone. When we added a parked domain, I was worried about being penalized by the search engines for dual hosting. My system admin, which I must say is a very good one, told me to add these lines to a .htaccess file and place it in the root directory of my site.
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^olddomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.parkeddomain.org/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.olddomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.parkeddomain.org/$1 [L,R=301]I think this .htaccess file is what was actually causing the problem. When I switched the URI addresses in WordPress options, everything worked, that is from http://www.olddomain.com to http://www.parkeddomain.org.
My host admin was going to switch the primary domain from the old to the new to see if that would help before I changed it in WordPress options.
Thanks, Kevin
Ok guys, I fixed the problem and I won’t say I told you so, but I did tell you so 😉 The problem was with a parked domain. I had the primary domain listed in the options. We recently parked a new domain name. And yes, I had my hosting admin check the problem also. So, I just changed the switched the domain names and everything works now. Please don’t come off with this, “Well, you didn’t tell us about that” stuff. I told you it was a remote problem, that was pretty obvious to me, and I’m not a mcse, haha.
But, with all that said, thanks for your help guys, it’s been a thrilling ride. Maybe this will help someone else that has a similar experience.
Jinsan, maybe you need to read this article before posting about someone being confident with a software firewall.

I don’t have privacy software. Cookies work just fine on my computer. I know I sound like a broken record, but two identical installations where one works and one doesn’t is the main point in question.
Ok, what do you suggest I do? My router is not setup to be a firewall. It has a firewall, but it is disabled. I have McAfee firewall plus and anti-virus on my XP Pro machine. The router is the DNS server to the XP machine and a Linux box.
For some reason you do not seem to notice the largest factor in this problem, podz. I have this blog freshly installed at a personal site. I have this same identical software installed at a site that I maintain for someone. Now you tell me why I can toggle visibility/delete the links on one and not the other. If it’s between the plug in the wall and my puter screen, then why doesn’t the problem happen with both sites?
I have a broadband router. The blog works at one site and not another with the same local computer. If it’s not a remote problem, then why does this happen?
The same thing happened with the linux box and it doesn’t even have a firewall. Could this not be a remote issue, like read/write permissions?
XP Pro/Firefox 5.0, IE 6.0/McAfee Firewall Plus and Anti-Virus. I have a linux box also and I’m going to try with it.
But if it is indeed a firewall or browser issue, then why will it work at one site and not the other?
I have the blog installed on two sites of mine. I have another user at one and we’ve both been logging in under the same admin data. Is it possible that this is causing a referrer problem? I seem to think so because I’m not having this problem at the site where I’m the only admin login.
I did what the above link told me to do within my browser and it didn’t change anything.
