 * You may also wish to try one of these.
 * *nix server:
    – from my experience wordpress looks in its root folder for the.
   htaccess file i.e yoursite.com/blog means you need one in the blog folder. – 
   create an empty text file and call it exactly “.htaccess” not “.htaccess.txt”
   or anything. – give permissions for world read\write\execute (777 i think) – 
   this only temporary – in WordPress admin set the permalink as you wish and update–
   refresh your main page and test a link – reset the file permission – refresh 
   and test a link again
 * Windows:
    – try creating a php.ini file at your site root with just these lines
   in it
 * cgi.fix_pathinfo = 1
    cgi.force_redirect = 0
 * Hope that helps
