What is this freaking 404 "not found" that keeps invading every thread I open? Is there a way to get rid of it?

This Google Search will take you to a world of information, including this site which is the best I've seen on the subject.
You are not alone, if you find 404 errors frustrating.

One of my colleagues is known as "Old 404" because you can never find him when he's needed !

Ah Dave, good to see you here this morning:- I was afraid you'd become "404 Not Found" yourself after reading the death notice in today's Guardian for one David Bryant, "bon viveur... [who] loved life, books, poetry, wine, women, music and art" and whose chosen epitaph is The Last Haiku:
Oh no
I can't be old already
I was just about to...


Seems like your namesake was an interesting and life-loving character, but I'm glad nevertheless to see you're still with us!

If I'd kicked the bucket, about the only mention would have probably been in Folk London (as an ex-editor) and of course possibly on this site.

Anyway you have to be careful about believing obituries in national papers - especially after Dave Swarbrick's one.
