go in and edit your .htaccess file. It put some shit in there that fucks things up if you have frontpage extensions enabled on your server or some shit like that.

It's a modrewrite I beleive, once you open your htaccess file you will see what it added.

Bad new is, yes, it added something, but I do not know what.
Can I just kill this?

BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

I had this shit happen to me once too. I don't remember what I did to fix it, but i was in the middle of an install so I only resolved it by reinstalling. I wouldn't recommend that if you have stuff there though.

OK, this does have to be like THIS:

[SIZE=4]/%category%/%postname%[/SIZE]

not like

%category%/%postname%

Now it works.
