no problem. As you see that are urls to our test threads. You deleted this threads, so there are a 404 error (failed link)

2. urls like (from web_crawl_not_found...):

it is working. no problem. As you remember I worked on your site with .htaccess. (you had a good redirect but not translated - then it does not translated the link. now it works) look on a date

3. urls like:

http://www.thecodecage.com/vi/blog,404 (Not found),16 pages,10/5/10
http://www.thecodecage.com/vi/hesk,404 (Not found),10 pages,10/5/10
http://www.thecodecage.com/vi/register.html,404 (Not found),16 pages,10/5/10
http://www.thecodecage.com/vi/webhosting,404 (Not found),16 pages,10/5/10
As you know these pages are not translated (like hesk etc.) so you should ignored these pages by vBET.
please go to admincp->vBET->Ignore URLs and write the description.

In general, these are old links and everything works. There is no need to worry about that.
