I was trying to click on the sponsor banner (top right) and I'm getting this

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Thought you might want to know.
 
Thanks for the heads up. We'll take a look and get that squared away.

I've researched this, and it appears to be a mod_security issue with the host. I've created a support ticket, and with luck it will be resolved shortly.
 
Yep, they had a security trap set up, and it has to be disabled on a per-site basis on all the hosts' sites. They just put it in a few weeks ago, apparently.
 
Evidently it's happening again, or something like it. I tried to click on the Beefolks.com banner and got this:

too.

I can of course just type it in, but if I click through then they know I came from here...which is good.
