    Uh.... neither aaaa... nor a?a?a?... looks much like a fully qualified www address... which makes me wonder if your "404" is intended to be merely figurative or if you really have no clue. -   -

    If figurative, please show errors message(s), verbatim.

    Update: Apologies. Memo to self: Read the full thread before commenting. (Sneaky suspicion: given moritz' reply and replies to that, same advice may apply to poster of parent node.)
