Hello overyone. My new clan forum at http://gdf.netau.net/forum/ (not finished) is having problems. Whenever you click the link to go to one of the boards, it redirects to my host's (000webhost, fantastic host) 404 page. I noticed the links go to some HTML files meant to be in my forum's root directory, but they're not physically there. Is there a workaround for this? Can someone please help.
Thankyou in advance,

/forumpath/htaccess.txt

Rename to ".htaccess"

I've already done that - could it be that my host doesn't support .htaccess? (even though there was one already there)

Thanks,

[EDIT] I noticed in the .htaccess file it has this text:
#
# MyBB "search engine friendly" URL rewrites
# - Note, for these to work with MyBB please make sure you have
#   the setting enabled in the Admin CP and you have this file
#   named .htaccess
#
Is there a setting somewhere to disable these phantom, search-friendly HTML pages?

[EDIT2] Never mind - found it, fixed it. Thank you anyway, Jason L.! If I can figure out how to rep+ you, I will.
