Where is my Askimet key?
http://faq.wordpress.com/2005/10/19/api-key/
I get a standard ‘The page cannot be found’ error when using Internet Explorer. Any suggestions?
This is known problem and a fix will be rolled into the next release. In the meantime, read on:
Apache makes a note below the ErrorDocument documentation:
Microsoft Internet Explorer (MSIE) will by default ignore server-generated error messages when they are "too small" and substitute its own "friendly" error messages. The size threshold varies depending on the type of error, but in general, if you make your error document greater than 512 bytes, then MSIE will show the server-generated error rather than masking it. More information is available in Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q294807.
My best recommendation is to inflate the size of the error document. But some garbage text between two comment tags and see what that does.
