Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks !

    I can think of two possible causes:

    1. You have something strange entered in the Permalink settings.
    2. You have given a single post, or a tag, the exact same name as a category, and WP doesn't know which one to serve. If this is the problem, going into the Category edit screen and changing the "slug" to something slightly different will resolve the issue.

      I would recommend you take the day off, if its possible, and do a major computer clean up. But first, make sure, get a reputable firewall and up to date antivirus software. Did you downloaded recently any shady software or toolbar from the internet?

      Make sure to clean up and fix the registry on your computer. Check the browser history, does it shows any pages that you didn't visit recently?

      Karen,
      I think you are right on all the above. I've to check my permalink setting. Yes, It's a single post, my tag is exact same name as a category. I will change it to see if this help.
