Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Hey guys sorry about total screw up on the errors. When you click on the links you get an error but if you hit enter than the link will work fine after that. I'm not even sure why it does that but i'm looking into it.

Thanks for your patience.
