For top level URLs (such as abc.com), the first possibility is that the request for your site URL has been directed to a Web server that thinks it never had any pages for your Web site. This is possible if DNS entries are fundamentally corrupt, or if your Web server has corrupt internal records. The second possibility is that the Web server once hosted the Web site, but now no longer does so and can not or will not provide a redirection to another computer which now hosts the site. If your site is completely dead - now effectively nowhere to be found on the Internet - then the 404 message makes sense. However if your site has recently moved, then an 404 message may also be triggered. This is also a DNS issue, because the old Web server should no longer be accessed at all - as soon as global DNS entries are updated, only your new Web server should be accessed.

For low-level URLs (such as abc.com/products/list.html), this error can indicate a broken link. You can see this easily by trying the URL in a Web browser. Most browsers give a very clear '404 - Not Found' message.

Provided that your Web site is still to be found somewhere on the Internet, 404 errors should be rare. For top level URLs, they typically occur only when there is some change to how your site is hosted and accessed, and even these typically disappear within a week or two once the Internet catches up with the changes you have made. For low-level URLs, the solution is almost always to fix your Web pages so that the broken hypertext link is corrected.

Error 404 is a server-side error generally. It means , the server can't find the page you requested, and there's no browser setting you can adjust to fix this. It could be that the pages are loading too slowly on your IE and timing out perhaps. It's more likely that the IE browser can't properly handle the non-WAP/WML page you're throwing at it , and the server just gives up. Or alternately your webmail server could be screwed .
