scole.cogia.net/questions.html

When I type in the site or use the link on my trivia page it gives me this:

The requested URL /error/Q2hQMXw1MDQ5NzB8c2VhY29sfGh0dHA6Ly9zY29sZS5jb2dpYS5uZXQvcXVlc3Rpb25zLmh0bWx8NTA0OTcw was not found on this server.

I've never seen anything like this in all of my years of doing webpages and I've tried everything I can think of, but this is ridiculous. :x

Mmm.

It looks like you have the ./questions.html page redirecting to /error/Q2hQMXw1MDQ5NzB8c2VhY29sfGh0dHA6Ly9zY29sZS5jb2dpYS5uZXQvcXVlc3Rpb25zLmh0bWx8NTA0OTcw
