Hello Forum,
since a while the statistics of my homepage show the well known error HTTP 404. It doesn't come from my homepage itself (I checked it, even by an external checker, no dead links at all), so anywhere in the wild there must be all the wrong links to my homepage (i.e. to a certain couple of pages only).
I googled for the wrong links as they are listed in 'awstats' but didn't get any result.
How can I find out, where the wrong links come from? Is there a way?
Thanks, Edith

On the errors404 AwStats output subpage, the "source" of 404 errors should be in the "Referrers" column unless blocked by the affected user's browser privacy settings.
